One Killed, One Injured in Small Plane Crash

Authorities say a woman has died and her husband was seriously injured in a plane crash in Alabama. Tallapoosa County Sheriff Jimmy Abbett told news outlets that 66-year-old Jeannette Carol Currier was killed in the crash Tuesday afternoon. Her husband, 67-year-old David Lee Currier, was injured and is listed in critical condition at a Columbus, Georgia, hospital. Abbett says investigators found the wreckage of a single-engine Beechcraft Bonanza in a wooded area more than a mile away from U.S. Highway 280 near Dadeville. He says the retired military veteran and his wife were flying from Enterprise, Alabama, to Sparta, Tennessee. The cause of the crash remains under investigation.
