The Cessna 310, a private aircraft, crashed around 12:00 p.m. E.T., Lynn Lunsford, a spokesperson for the FAA's Southwest Regional Operations said.
Lunsford said at this point officials are unsure of the plane's origin or destination and they are not releasing the tail number of the plane yet. Firefighters are at the scene, Lunsford said.

They were on their way to spread the ashes of one of the mens mother. They were all wondeful people. a coach and his wife died, their 2 kids are in icu and the other family died aswell. Such a sad sad day. They will be missed. Please pray for the 2 boys.
I agree, some people are so heartless, they don't care who they hurt, I too live in wonderful granbury and feel that these people didn't do anything to deserve this. I only wish I knew the family even better. My son played football with Kristopher and he was a sweet kid. May God be with them and strengthen their bodies and heal them. May God also teach and show them of his presence.
Oh, Rita, aren't you the very soul of compassion.
I have no love for illegals in this country, but this comment is about the most unconscionable thing I've read in quite some time. You, Rita, must be a very bitter, lonely person.
Ignorant people like yourself Rita... Too bad you were not in the plane... I never wish people harm but you are a heartless b***h
That means the Spanish half of you should also get out
Here's a little news for you raq, It's not your land either, it's mine. Native Americans were here first. Sorry.
don't forget to mention the white mans religion that was forced on u by the christian taliban crusades......
What are you talking about and what's it got to do with anything? You must be STUPID!
Yeah cause the Mexican government is doing such a good job of running the country that they have, we should all just get out and give them more land.
Most Americans seem to forget that little tidbit
Yeah? Well you sold it for whiskey and guns. Enjoy your reservations, be grateful you got those.
HAHAHA! Too funny my friend.
Duh...what an appropriate name for you duhmmy.
I don't know what Rita said, but I pretty sure she had the right to say what she said, since it was reported as an abuse, but by you saying that you don't love for any illegals here in this country doesn't make you look any better than her. You are full of hate and may God have Mercy on you!
