The identities of the two people killed in a plane crash Sunday night in Fulton County near the Sharp County line have been released, according to a report from KAIT.
Fulton County Sheriff Al Roork says the victims are 57-year-old Bradley Dunham of Bono, who was piloting the plane when it crashed, and a passenger, 52-year-old Christine Ann Price of Walnut Ridge.
The wreckage was found Monday morning. The Federal Aviation Administration and National Transportation Safety Board were called in to investigate the crash. Officials were expected to arrive at the site on Tuesday.
Crews from Fulton and Sharp counties were called in around 5:30 Sunday night, after witnesses reported hearing and seeing a plane go down. Dense fog and nightfall made finding the plane difficult.
A cause of the crash is unknown, but Sharp County Sheriff Mark Counts said there was heavy fog throughout the area.
