Four injured following Wexford plane crash

A male pilot is believed to have suffered two broken legs in a plane crash in Co Wexford yesterday.

The female co-pilot also had a suspected broken leg, after the emergency landing near Carnsore Point at 5pm.

Another man and woman, seated at the back of the four-seat aircraft, suffered less serious injuries.

The two men are aged in their 20s and 50s, and the women are both in their 30s.

Ambulance officer for Wexford, Ger Carthy, says the plane landed on a beach after mechanical failure.
