Two Survive Crash Of Small Plane on Iron Range
EVELETH (AP) — Sheriff's officials say two people survived the crash of a small plane in northeastern Minnesota.
Tower Municipal Airport manager John Burgess says the Piper PA-32 departed early Sunday afternoon, destined for somewhere in Wisconsin.
Burgess says no flight plan had been filed.
The crash was discovered a couple hours later near the Eveleth-Virginia Municipal Airport about 34 miles to the south.
St. Louis County Under Sheriff Dave Phillips said a deputy found the wreckage of the plane, where a small fire burned.
Phillips said it's a miracle the two on board survived. There was no immediate word on their conditions.
