Brockville Municipal Airport, Ontario, Canada

Pilot sustains serious injuries in Brockville plane crash

A single-engine plane crashed in a field near Brockville Airport Sunday night, seriously injuring the pilot.

The pilot was the lone occupant and he was pinned within the small plane and required the Jaws of Life to be extricated.

A spokesman for the Brockville Fire Department says the crash occurred around 6:45 p.m. Sunday night and the pilot was extricated just after 8 p.m. A farmer was in the field and saw the plane come down and then called it in.

The pilot was taken by air ambulance to an undisclosed hospital.
