This is a developing story. If you have any footage or information please tell us. The cause of the crash is unknown, the FAA is investigating.

Officials said four men were killed when a small plane crashed in a cow pasture near a luxury home development northwest of West Palm Beach.

 

Martin County Assistant Fire-Rescue Chief Henry Johnson said the Cessna 172 Skyhawk went down around 9 a.m. Thursday near a development of 20-acre equestrian homes known as Martin County Ranches, about 50 miles northwest of West Palm Beach.

 

Authorities said they found all four men still inside the upside-down plane. All of them had died during the crash, officials said. Their identities have not been released, though initial reports are that three of the men are students at Florida Atlantic University, WPBF reported.
