Six people were killed Sunday morning when a plane crashed in northeast Ohio — just seven minutes after it took off, officials confirmed.
Four passengers and two crew members were killed in the twin-engine Cessna 441 crash, which happened around 7 a.m. in Howland Township near Youngstown-Warren Regional Airport.
Western Reserve Port Authority executive director Anthony Trevena said at a news conference that there were no survivors.
Authorities identified the victims as 68-year-old Veronica Weller, 67-year-old James Weller, 36-year-old John Weller and 34-year-old Maria Weller.
The pilot was identified as 63-year-old Joseph Maxin, and the co-pilot as 55-year-old Timothy Blake.
Fox 8 obtained 911 calls following the incident, including one in which a caller said he heard a “huge crash.”
