MUKILTEO — Authorities say one person has died and another has been injured in a small plane crash in a wooded area near Paine Field and the Mukilteo Speedway.
The Daily Herald reports the plane apparently crashed around 9 a.m. Wednesday outside of airport boundaries.
KOMO-TV reports the single-engine plane crashed in a brushy area near a McDonald’s restaurant.
Lt. Rodney Rochon of the Snohomish County sheriff’s office says crews had to cut their way through brush to get to the plane, using chain saws and machetes.
