A small single-engine plane crashed into a cornfield in Indiana on Friday, killing everyone on board.
Police reported that there were no survivors in an Indiana plane crash that occurred on Friday.
A small single-engine plane left Fort Dodge Regional Airport in Iowa at around 6:45 a.m. Central Time on Friday and was set to land at Anderson Municipal Airport, about an hour’s drive Northeast of Indianapolis, at around 10:00 a.m. Central Time.
But the plane ended up crashing into a nearby cornfield, said Captain Darwin Dwiggins of the Madison County Sheriff’s Department.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) said in a preliminary statement that « four people were on board » the plane, which was a Piper PA-46. None of the passengers survived the crash, according to Dwiggins.
The plane came in at too high of an altitude on its initial approach to land.
« They were too high », Dwiggins said.
