Kabul, Afghanistan (CNN) -- A NATO-led International Security Assistance Force helicopter crashed Friday in Afghanistan's capital city of Kabul, killing five people, an Afghan police chief said.
ISAF confirmed the helicopter "went down" but said the cause of the accident was unknown. "There was no report of insurgent activity in the area," said Capt. David Yaryar, an ISAF spokesman.
Afghan police and fire crews were on the scene of the crash in Kabul's eastern district of Bagrami, said Gen. Ayob Salangi, the Kabul police chief.
Five bodies were pulled from the wreckage, Salangi said. The victims were identified as Turkish citizens, he said.
There were no immediate reports of civilian casualties
