TMZ obtained the 911 call from Monday’s crash in Sacramento, and you hear dispatchers saying someone is stuck under the crashed chopper and a tow truck needs to come in to free her.
Quick-thinking bystanders ended up rushing over to lift the helicopter off the female victim … more than a dozen people pitched in to help … and she was rushed to a hospital.
Dispatchers say 3 people were in critical condition … another woman and a man were also pulled from the wreck, which happened on U.S. Highway 50 around 7 PM Monday on the east side of Sacramento, the capital city in the northern region of the state.

The helicopter had just dropped off a medical patient at UC Davis Medical Center in town when it crashed … and no other patients were on board at the time of the crash, which ignited a fire.
Unclear what caused the chopper to fall out of the sky … the incident is under investigation.
