5 dead, small plane crashes in Florida's Lake Okeechobee | Daily Mail Online
At least five people have died after their twin-engine Piper PA-230-250 aircraft crashed into a lake in Florida on Friday afternoon, according to authorities.
The Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office said that the plane was traveling from Tampa International Airport and was making its landing approach toward Pahokee Airport when it crashed into Lake Okeechobee at around 3:30pm.
Investigators from both the Federal Aviation Administration and the National Transportation Safety Board are probing the accident, according to the Miami Herald.
The plane crashed just north of the airport - about 400 yards from shore, according to WPTV-TV.
The identities of the victims, whose bodies were found in the fuselage of the plane, have not been released.
