Crews Searching For Missing Plane In Alaska

JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) — Searchers in Alaska are flying over stretches of ice-covered seas and scouring miles of frozen tundra for any sign of a plane that went missing just south of the Arctic Circle with 10 people on board. The Bering Air Caravan disappeared Thursday afternoon over the Norton Sound while en route from Unalakleet to Nome with nine passengers and a pilot. Authorities are working to determine the single-engine turboprop’s last known coordinates. Unalakleet is a community of about 690 people in western Alaska.
