Weather may have been factor in northern B.C. plane crash that killed US couple
FORT NELSON, B.C. – Rescue officials say a couple from the United States has been killed in a small plane crash in northern British Columbia.
The husband and wife were travelling to Watson Lake from Dawson Creek.
The Joint Rescue Communication Centre in Victoria say the plane veered off course Monday and crashed in the Fort Nelson region.
Officials aren’t saying what caused the crash, but says the weather was “active” at the time and could have been a factor.
