Plane Crash Kills Family

A plane carrying a family of seven, flying from St. Louis to Destin, Florida — crashed in a wooded area within two miles of the airport, according to the report.

Marengo County Coroner Stuart Eatmon told Montgomery television station WAKA that the people killed were a mother, father and their five children who ranged in age from 2 to 10. Their names hadn’t been released.

Searchers found the plane around 2:17 a.m. Sunday. Authorities said the crash site was accessible only by all-terrain vehicles.
