Plane headed for Waco crashes in Caldwell; 2 hurt
Two men are hospitalized in Bryan today after the crash of a small plane on a Central Texas baseball diamond.
Authorities say the single-engine Cessna was flying from Sugar Land to Waco when 39-year-old pilot Cole Reed of Georgetown experienced engine problems.
He tried to make an emergency landing at the Caldwell airport, but the plane struck a light pole at the nearby baseball field and crash landed on the infield about 6 p.m. Wednesday.
There were no injuries on the ground, where players and coaches were in the outfield. Reed is in critical condition at Scott and White Hospital in Temple. His 24-year-old passenger, Bryan Farney of Taylor, is in serious condition at St. Joseph Regional Health Center in Bryan.
