A plane crash around 6:40 p.m. on Sunday afternoon at the Camden Municipal Airport runway left two dead, according the Ouachita County Sheriff David Norwood.
The Camden Municipal Airport's Facebook page posted Sunday night:
“Sadly there was a fatal plane crash earlier this evening at the Camden Airport. While the plane was not local, the pilot was well known to the pilots who fly out of here. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the families involved.”
While it was originally reported as a single fatality crash, investigators found a second victim after the fire from the plane was extinguished, Norwood said.
Details are still forthcoming pending investigations by the National Transportation Safety Board and by the Federal Aviation Administration.
