Post-mortem examinations for Kingston plane crash victims could take days, coroner says


KINGSTON, ONT.—The Ontario chief coroner’s office says it will perform post-mortem examinations in the coming days on the four adults and three children who died in a plane crash in Kingston, Ont., on Wednesday. The Transportation Safety Board says the seven people died when a small, U.S.-registered airplane crashed in a wooded area within city limits around 5 p.m. The cause of the crash is still under investigation, however local residents and police noted there was bad weather in the area at the time. Ken Webster says the plane had taken off from Buttonville municipal airport in Markham, Ont., and the pilot made contact with the Kingston airport just before the plane went down. A spokeswoman for the coroner’s office says the victims’ names likely won’t be released for several days.
