Small plane crashes in Brazil's Sao Paulo state, killing two
SAO PAULO — A small plane crashed Saturday in Brazil's southeastern Sao Paulo state, killing two people on board, authorities said.
The private aircraft went down in vegetation in the municipality of Quadra, about 100 miles (160 kilometers) from the state capital, Sao Paulo.
Local firefighters said they found two charred bodies. Authorities did not release their identities.
The Brazilian Air Force had recorded 19 airplane accidents this year, five of them fatal, before Saturday's crash.
On Feb. 7, another small aircraft crashed on an avenue in Sao Paulo shortly after taking off from a private airport, killing the pilot and the plane’s owner.
An aircraft crash last August in Vinhedo, near Sao Paulo, killed all 72 people on board.
