Two men were killed in a plane crash at Peace River Airport on Sept. 3.

Peace River RCMP and Grimshaw RCMP responded to a report of a plane crash at the airport around 4:50 p.m., says a news release dated Sept. 3 from Alberta RCMP Media Group.

A 30-year-old man from Manning and a 27-year-old man from Australia were declared deceased at the scene, says public information officer Cpl. Gina Slaney of the Alberta RCMP Media Group.
