(KMZA)--Two men were injured Sunday after a small plane crashed in Pottawatomie County, north of St. Mary's.
The Kansas Highway Patrol says it happened shortly before noon about 500 yards southwest of 5330 Sumner Court.
The Patrol says the T-Bird fixed wing aircraft had taken off from a runway to the north en route to Lyndon, near Pamona Lake, when it experienced engine problems and a propeller broke. The plane then lost power and crashed.
The pilot, 71-year-old St. Mary's resident William Linn, was taken to Topeka's Colmery-O'Neil VA Medical Center. His passenger, 64-year-old Topeka resident Alan Drennon, was transported to Stormont-Vail Hospital in Topeka. The extent of their injuries weren't immediately known.
