Two people died and two others were injured after a helicopter and a gyrocopter collided midair at an airport in Wisconsin, according to authorities.
The collision took place on July 29 shortly after noon local time at Wittman Regional Airport in Oshkosh.
“The Winnebago County Sheriff’s Department confirmed two people were killed and two injured in the accident,” the statement reads. “The injured parties were transported to a local hospital and are each in stable condition.”
Separately, a plane crashed into Lake Winnebago near Oshkosh on the same day, killing two people who were on board, the Winnebago County Sheriff’s Office said. The crash involved a single-engine North American T-6 aircraft.
The accident occurred around 9 a.m. The sheriff’s department is working closely with EAA, the NTSB, and the Federal Aviation Administration to investigate the crash.
The identities of those who died in both accidents “have not been released pending notification of family members,” the EAA said.
