An unexpected mishap occurred on Saturday, when a tourist plane crashed in the French Alps, killing five people including four members of the same family, rescue services said.
The incident took place in the afternoon shortly after the take-off from the Versoud airfield near Grenoble in southeast France, which should have been a half-hour flight.
After the crash occurs, the bystanders tipped off the emergency services, who found the bodies of four adults and a child inside the plane’s burnt-out wreckage. Approximately 60 firefighters were deployed to the site to put out the fire.
Grenoble prosecutors have ordered an investigation into what possible could go wrong to the plane, said, regional officials.
