WILLIAMSTOWN, N.J. (WPHL) — On Wednesday evening, a small skydiving plane veered off the runway at a New Jersey airport, leading to at least five individuals being hospitalized, as reported by authorities.

Gloucester County Emergency Management is reporting a downed aircraft at the Cross Keys Airport in Williamstown, New Jersey.

The plane involved was a Cessna 208B with 15 passengers, as stated by a spokesperson from the Federal Aviation Administration, which is currently conducting an investigation.

According to Wendy A. Marano, a spokesperson for Cooper University Hospital in Camden, New Jersey, the five injured individuals are anticipated to be taken to their facility for treatment.

Members of the hospital’s EMS and trauma department traveled to the crash site, she said. She wasn’t able to provide the conditions of the injured.

A person who answered the phone at Cross Keys Airport on Wednesday said he had no information and referred questions to Skydive Cross Keys, a commercial skydiving business located at the airport.
