US: Six die in crash of Alaskan commuter plane
US rescuers have found a missing commuter plane in western Alaska and the bodies of
the six people on board.
The Cessna 207 with one pilot and five passengers left Bethel on Tuesday in heavy snow
and disappeared on its way to coastal villages on the Bering Sea.
A distress signal from the plane was picked up on Tuesday, but the exact point of origin
was only pinpointed late Wednesday.
It's not yet know what caused the crash.
