At least one person died in the crash of a small plane into a rural south-central Pennsylvania field, state police said. Police said the crash early Thursday scattered debris over a quarter-mile area north of Gettysburg. He said the plane was destroyed, but there didn't appear to have been a fire or explosion. Hicks said neighbors in the Biglerville area heard what sounded like engine trouble and then the noise of the crash at about 5:30 a.m. Thursday.
