US girl, 7, says she survived plane crash

US girl, 7, says she survived plane crash
A SEVEN-YEAR-OLD girl has apparently survived after a small plane crash killed four people, US police say.
SERGEANT Dean Patterson of the Kentucky State Police said a disoriented young girl walked to a home and reported that she had been involved in a plane crash.
The resident called authorities and the girl was taken to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
Authorities found the aircraft a couple of hours later and confirmed that the pilot and three other passengers had been killed.
Kathleen Bergen of the Federal Aviation Administration says air traffic controllers lost contact with a Piper PA-34 as it was flying over Marshall County in the southwestern part of the state.
The pilot had reported engine problems.
