Four people died in a plane crash on Michigan's Beaver Island, including a real estate agent and a couple who were planning to open a winery and vineyard there, authorities said Sunday. The lone survivor was an 11-year-old girl.
The plane crashed Saturday west of Mackinaw City, killing four of the five people on board. Lt. William Church of the Charlevoix County Sheriff's Office identified three of the deceased as Kate Leese and Adam Kendall of Beaver Island, and Mike Perdue of Gaylord. Perdue was a real estate agent, Church told WZZM-TV.
Authorities have not released the name of the pilot who was also killed. Perdue's 11-year-old daughter was seriously injured in the crash and remained hospitalized Sunday.
