The plane, a Piper PA-23, went down around 4:44 p.m. in Chatsworth, Ga., about 17 miles south of the state’s border with Tennessee, federal aviation officials said. In a telephone interview late Saturday, a spokesman for the Federal Aviation Administration said it did not appear that anyone on the ground was injured by the crash, and added that it was unknown whether any property was damaged. Early reports suggested the aircraft might have broken up in flight, the spokesman said, adding that the F.A.A. would investigate the crash. An employee at the Murray County Sheriff’s Office in Georgia confirmed the fatalities to The New York Times, but could not provide the identities of the victims. According to the sheriff’s office employee, Sheriff Gary Langford had not clarified how many people were on the plane, or whether investigators were searching for survivors. The National Transportation Safety Board said on Twitter late Saturday that it was also investigating the crash. Link to the full article to read more
