A small private airplane crashed Monday afternoon south of Hutchinson, Minn., and two people aboard were injured, authorities said.
The single-engine plane went down about 1 p.m. near 145th Street and Plum Avenue, the McLeod County Sheriff's Office said.
Two men were removed from the wreckage and taken by emergency responders to a nearby hospital, according to the Sheriff's Office. The seriousness of their injuries was not disclosed.
The aircraft tail number shows that the plane is registered to a man from the far northern California city of Anderson.
The aviation-tracking website FlightRadar24.com reported that the plane left Flying Cloud Airport in Eden Prairie and retraced its path before crashing in a rural part of the county.
Authorities have yet to identify either person aboard the plane or what its flight plan was.
Officials from the Federal Aviation Administration and the National Transportation Safety Board are investigating the crash.
