VIENNA, Ohio (WKBN) – An airplane crashed at the Youngstown-Warren Regional Airport in Vienna Friday evening, killing three people.

Western Reserve Port Authority Executive Director Anthony Trevena confirmed the crash resulted from an unscheduled, emergency landing of an airplane unassociated with Youngstown Air Reserve’s 910th wing.

According to the Ohio State Patrol, the aircraft was occupied by a pilot and two passengers. All three of the occupants died as a result of the crash that occurred just after 7 p.m.

Trevena said around 8 p.m. they were waiting for the National Transportation Safety Board and the Federal Aviation Administration to arrive at the scene and investigate. A mechanical failure is suspected.

After the crash, WKBN’s weather camera detected a cloud of smoke near the runway.
