UPDATE: A helicopter carrying four passengers has crashed into the side of a hill at Mount Buller.
An Ambulance Victoria spokesman said paramedics were called to the scene at Summit Road about 2.30 pm with reports the chopper had flipped upside down on impact.
He said the helicopter was carrying four people, with one person sustaining minor injuries in the crash and the others unharmed.
One passenger has been taken to Mansfield hospital with a sore back.
The passengers were believed to be involved with the Targa High Country rally to take place in the region over the weekend.
A racing car driver was piloting the chopper and his three crew were aboard, ABC reported.
The chopper is believed to have crashed while attempting to land.
Investigators from the Australian Transport Safety Bureau are on their way to the scene to investigate the cause of the crash.
Witness Mark Woodford told 3AW’s Tom Elliot the helicopter was “smashed up”.
“On Summit Road there’s a landing pad … and it’s tried to land there and obviously it hasn’t landed,” he said.
“It looks like it’s rolled over about 10 metres from that pad.
“It’s pretty mangled … the tail is broken … she’s definitely smashed up.”
The incident follows a helicopter crash on Saturday in which a female pilot was lucky to escape with only a grazed thumb.
The pilot had just dropped off passengers returning from the Derby Day races when her helicopter crashed on take-off at Olympic Park about 6.30pm.
The rotor blade of the helicopter flew 30 metres through the air before crashing into a parked car, with the shocked pilot managing to crawl from the wreckage.
Paramedic Jason Pitman said the pilot had done well to escape relatively unscathed and was taken to The Alfred hospital in a stable condition.
The Australian Transport Safety Bureau is investigating the cause of the crash.
