Two people were killed in a plane crash near Westchester County Airport in New York on Thursday, officials said.
The Beechcraft A36 took off from New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport just before 5 p.m., heading for Cuyahoga County Airport in Richmond Heights, Ohio. The single-engine plane went down around 6:15 p.m. after the pilot reported having engine trouble about one mile out from Westchester County Airport in White Plains, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) spokesperson Elizabeth Isham Cory said.
