The bodies of six people have been found after a small byplane crashed over a forest in Wisconsin.
Investigators are looking into how a fixed-wing Piper, flying back from Kenosha to Menomonie, came to crash over a forest with five adults and a child on board.
They are probing if a freak weather event could have caused the plane to come down at 9.40pm over a densely wooded area in Dellona, Sauk County.
Before the crash, the aircraft was reported to be in contact with a nearby air traffic control tower, police said.
When police arrived, several neighbours were already searching the area after seeing a low-flying plane.

Police said that identities of those involved are being withheld at this time.
