“I pray for the immediate recovery of PNP Chief Police Gen. Archie Gamboa and the rest of the passengers rescued from the chopper,” Andanar said in a message to reporters Thursday.

The helicopter carrying Gamboa and several others crashed in San Pedro, Laguna Wednesday morning. The chopper reportedly hit a high tension wire causing it to go down. Gamboa and others were reportedly rushed to the hospital after sustaining minor injuries.

The officials visited an impounding area of seized vehicles seized in police operations in San Pedro, Laguna before the ill-fated helicopter crash happened.
