The two people who died in a helicopter crash in the northwest Valley on Friday worked for the Peoria Police Department.
Michael Gauchat, 41, had been a police officer with the department since 1990. Donna Collum had been with the city of Peoria since 2000, working first in the fleet department and, in 2003, becoming a police services officer.
