A small plane crashed yesterday in a heavily wooded area in Armonk, New York, near Westchester County Airport, killing 3 people on board.
Authorities said investigators were trying to determine if a fourth person died.
The crash was reported around 1:30pm (1830 GMT). The Cessna 210 fell behind an office complex at 113 King Street in Armonk.
Shortly after the plane took off, the pilot radioed to advise he was returning to the airport. But the plane plummeted to the ground before reaching the runway and burst into flames, according to Federal Aviation Administration spokeswoman Holly Baker.
An airport source said the plane was based at Panorama Flight Service, in White Plains.
