A coroner in northeastern Pennsylvania has released the names of two people killed in a small plane crash near an airport.

The two victims who died in Wednesday night's crash are 34-year-old pilot Patrick Sheridan of Long Beach, N.Y., and 19-year-old passenger Casey Falconer of Garden City Park, N.Y.

Authorities identified the surviving passenger as 21-year-old Evan Kisseloff of Oceanside, N.Y.

Wayne County coroner Edward Howell on Thursday said all three men were students in the aviation program at Farmingdale College at the State University of New York.

Howell said autopsies will be conducted Friday.

The Federal Aviation Administration and the National Transportation Safety Board are investigating the accident.
