Yesterday, two people were killed in a plane accident in Hayden. The Cessna 414 plane went down just short of its runway at Yampa Valley Regional Airport.

According to officials, the plane left from the Corpus Christi International Airport on Sunday morning and made a stop in Dalhart, Texas, before flying to its destination in Colorado. The airplane landed upright in the accident and did not catch on fire.

Four people were injured, but were reported to have been conscious after the airplane accident. The injured were treated at Yampa Valley Medical Center. Two people were pronounced dead in the accident.

Officials are currently unsure of what caused the plane to crash, but suspect mechanical problems or visibility problems could have played a role. The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims’ families and friends after this tragic accident.
