Body of Irishman found in helicopter wreckage

The body of an Irishman, who has been missing for two weeks following a helicopter crash in the United States, has been found.

Sean O’Kane, a 36-year-old from Blackrock in Co Dublin, worked as a cameraman for a television station in San Diego.

He was piloting a helicopter when it crashed into the Pacific in late August. His body was found yesterday on the seabed, still strapped into his seat in the wreckage of the helicopter.
