May 14 (UPI) -- A small plane crashed into a home in northeastern Ohio on Thursday evening, killing both occupants of the aircraft, authorities said.
The Piper PA-28 crashed into a home in Akron around 3:45 p.m. EDT, according to a Federal Aviation Administration incident statement, which said two people were on board the plane.
