I'm not sure if there was a more recent one a few years ago in Edmonton, but a student from Kenya was killed, walking down the street, 14 years ago in Cranbrook, BC when a helicopter crashed.

The three occupants were killed, along with a Kenyan Minister's son.

A 23-year-old Kenyan man was crushed and killed and three others died after a helicopter crashed in Cranbrook, British Columbia, Canada on May 13. All on board the helicopter, two passengers and the pilot of the helicopter, were also killed.

Considered a freak accident, the attention was not centered around the crash or those killed in it, but whether or not the volume on the iPod the 23-year-old pedestrian was allegedly listening to was too loud.
