Six people, including one child, were killed in a plane crash in Wisconsin on Tuesday night after the pilot reported that ice was accumulating on the wings during a thunderstorm, authorities reported.
The single-engine, six-seat plane was en route from Kenosha to Menomonie when it crashed shortly before 10 p.m. in a wooded area near Mirror Lake State Park, not far from Wisconsin Dells, the Sauk County Sheriff’s Department said. Rain was falling as a thunderstorm moved through the Town of Dellona.
