Four killed in small plane crash off Alaska coast
–
Neutral summary
Four people died when a small Piper PA-24 aircraft crashed into shallow waters near the remote coastal town of Seldovia, Alaska, on Wednesday. The plane went down shortly after takeoff from the local airport and was completely submerged in about 15 feet of water, according to the National Transportation Safety Board. Rescue teams recovered the bodies only after the tide receded, and officials later identified the victims as pilot Eric Middlebrook, 68, and three California passengers: Ronald Schmidt, 65, Lance Schmidt, 20, and Daniel Simons, 82. An investigation into the cause of the crash is ongoing.
