2 Dead After Sunday Night Plane Crash in Cleburne. Feds Investigating

Two people and a dog died in the Sunday night plane crash in Cleburne, according to multiple reports.

Jeanette Sue Stone, 30, was one of the deceased, according to the Tarrant County Medical Examiner’s online records. The name of the second victim was not available as of Tuesday morning.

Cleburne police responded to a plane crash that occurred minutes before 9 p.m. Sunday in the area northeast of Lake Pat Cleburne and south of Hill College, a department spokesperson said Monday morning.

The department deferred other inquiries to other agencies handling the investigation, including the state Department of Public Safety, the Federal Aviation Administration and the National Transportation Safety Board.

The NTSB confirmed Monday on Twitter that it is investigating a Sunday night crash involving a Cessna 210 near Cleburne. An investigator with the agency was expected to be at the scene by the afternoon, an NTSB spokesperson said.

The NTSB’s preliminary report, which includes all the factual information learned to date, is expected to be published about two weeks after the accident.

Texas DPS said a civilian aircraft from West Virginia had stopped at the Cleburne Regional Airport for fuel before taking off around 8:55 p.m. and crashing minutes later. Multiple news outlets have reported the plane was destined for Grandbury.

This crash comes about three weeks after a deadly collision between two World War II-era aircraft during the Commemorative Air Force’s Wings Over Dallas air show. A Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress was struck by a Bell P-63 Kingcobra in midair, sending both to the ground and killing six people. Those who died included one pilot in the P-63 while two pilots and three crew members were in the B-17.

That crash remains under investigation.
