Plane Crash-Lands On Beach: Kills Father, Injures Daughter



A small plane crash-landed on a beach in the US state of Florida on Sunday, killing a father and critically injuring his young daughter.

The mid-afternoon incident in Venice involved a 1972 Piper Cherokee aircraft and neither the pilot nor his passenger was hurt, Wendy Rose of the Sarasota County Sheriff's Office said in a statement.

The deceased father was walking along the Gulf Coast beach with his daughter when the plane crash-landed, Rose said.

The girl was transported to a children's hospital in St. Petersburg "and is believed to be in critical condition," she added.
