A Cessna 421C light transport plane crashed in Wimberley, Texas, killing all five people on board, Hays County Chief Ruben Becerra said on Friday.
"Emergency personnel were deployed at around 23.05 local time (CDT) after receiving reports of a plane crash in the Wimberley area. The Cessna 421C plane was confirmed to have crashed with five people on board. Authorities have confirmed that all passengers died in the incident," Becerra wrote on social media.
According to initial information, the six-seat plane is not believed to have been involved in an air collision. However, the plane was reported to be flying at high speed when the accident occurred.
Becerra added that another plane flying around the location managed to land safely in New Braunfels.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) have been notified and will lead the investigation into the cause of the crash.
