Pilot killed in Brodhead crash
From the Associated Press:
BRODHEAD, Wis. (AP) - Green County authorities say an amateur-built, single-engine plane has crashed, killing the pilot on board.
Sheriff Randy Roderick says authorities received a 911 call late this afternoon that a plane had crashed in a field next to the Brodhead Airport.
The privately owned airport is in Spring Grove Township and is about 30 miles south of Madison.
Emergency personnel discovered the male pilot as the only person in the aircraft and the coroner pronounced him dead at the scene.
Authorities are withholding his name until his relatives are notified.
