One dead, four injured in Mexican plane crash
Mexico City - A small plane crashed in northern Mexico on Saturday and one of its passengers later died from injuries sustained during the accident.
Four others were also severely injured when the Cessna crashed and caught on fire less than half a kilometre from the airstrip at the Ramos Arizpe airport in Coahuila state, officials said.
The occupants, reporters and provincial government officials, suffered severe burns and were brought to a clinic in San Diego, California. One of the journalists was practically unhurt.
Initial indications showed the motor had stopped working, making it impossible for the pilot to navigate to the airport. (dpa)
