Long Island Couple Killed in Single-Engine Plane Crash

2008_08_masscrash.jpgA Westhampton couple were killed in a plane crash in Massachusetts; a third person was also killed. The flight was an "angel flight," via Angel Flight, the non-profit that flies people to medical centers for free; the couple (the husband had cancer) was headed to the Dana Farber Cancer Institute in Boston. The plane is described as either a single-engine Beechcraft Bonanza or Cessna crashed into a Hannaford grocery store's parking lot in Easton, MA. The store's manager said it happened to crash in an area where people don't usually park (no cars were hit).

    Hannaford is the name of the supermarket, not the town.



    The town the plane crashed in is Easton.
