TOKYO (Reuters) -Reports of the crash of a Japanese Self-Defence Forces’ helicopter on Friday were found to be untrue, the Kyodo news agency said.

A domestic television broadcaster earlier said the crash took place in the southern prefecture of Oita.

Police in the region identified a person who saw a low-flying aircraft in a mountainous area, Kyodo said.
