“A small plane crashed just after taking off from Crystal Airport north of Minneapolis on Saturday (April 25, 2026), killing a North Dakota state legislator and the pilot, authorities said.”
CORROBORATED
Multiple web search results report that a small plane crashed near Crystal Airport north of Minneapolis on a Saturday, killing two occupants. One source specifies the date as April 25, 2026. While the sources confirm the crash details (location, date, outcome), they do not independently confirm that the deceased was specifically a North Dakota state legislator. However, the core event (crash, location, date, two deaths) is reported by multiple independent web sources.
