The Missouri State Highway Patrol says two men died yesterday when a small plane crashed in a pasture near Obsorn. The 1967 single-engine Piper Cherokee went down around 4:30 yesterday afternoon about 200 yards from the Shatto Milk Company.

The Highway Patrol says people on the ground knew at least one person in the low-flying plane and waved as it flew by. It’s not clear where the plane took off. Federal investigators will begin examining the crash site today.
