Plane crash kills four in Minnesota

FARIBAULT, Minn., Nov. 27 (UPI) -- Federal investigators worked Monday to determine why a small airplane crashed as it tried to land at a Minnesota airport, killing all four people on board.

Federal Aviation Administration spokeswoman Elizabeth Isham Cory said the Cirrus SR22 plane left Aberdeen, S.D., for Faribault and it crashed off the Faribault Municipal Airport runway about 3 p.m. Sunday, bursting into flame and scattering debris, Minneapolis' WCCO-TV reported.

She said investigators from the FAA and the National Transportation Safety were at the scene.

"There's very little left," Faribault Police Chief Dan Collins said Sunday. Wind was gusting above 20 mph when the plane went down, but the cause of the crash hadn't been determined, he said.
