TULLAHOMA, Tenn. — A twin-engine propeller plane with 20 individuals on board went down Sunday afternoon close to a Tennessee airport, leading to injuries, as reported by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).

The crash occurred in Tullahoma, Tennessee, about 77 miles southeast of Nashville, according to the Tullahoma Police Department.

No deaths were reported from the crash, according to the Tullahoma Police Department.

According to a statement from Tullahoma police, “There are some minor injuries.” They added that local authorities are securing the scene while FAA officials are on their way to advance the investigation.

The FAA stated that at least two people aboard the plane were airlifted as a precautionary measure to nearby hospitals for treatment. The rest of the passengers were being medically assessed.

The crash occurred around 12:45 p.m. local time, according to the FAA.

The plane, a de Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter aircraft, crashed near the Tullahoma Regional Airport, the FAA said. The plane was carrying skydivers, according to the Tullahoma Police Department.

A photo released on social media by the Tennessee Highway Patrol showed the plane in the aftermath of the crash with its nose on the ground and one of its wings missing.

The cause of the crash is under investigation by the FAA.
