Plane crash in Polk County kills 4

July 28, 2015 By WRN Contributor

Four people are dead, following a small plane crash in northwestern Wisconsin.

The Polk County Sheriff’s office says the single-engine Beechcraft was found burning in a field between Amery and Star Prairie at about 5:30 Monday evening, about 50 miles away from Minneapolis. Authorities have not said where the plane was going or where its journey started.

The victims’ remains were all found inside the burned wreckage of the plane. They were taken to a medical examiner’s office in Minnesota to help determine their identities and causes of death.

The FAA and National Transportation Safety Board are investigating.
