1 Dead in Sugar Grove Plane Crash. Aurora Municipal Airport (KARR), Chicago/Aurora, Illinois.

One person is confirmed dead after a small plane crashed shortly after takeoff in the southwest suburbs.

The single-engine aircraft took off from Aurora Airport around 7:45 a.m. Witnesses said it seemed to be having engine problems, and crashed into some power lines at Garnart Road and Mary Drive in Sugar Grove.

That's about a mile and a half away from the airport.

The plane reportedly broke into pieces as it crashed.
