Five people, including one child, died in a plane crash Sunday at Ingalls Field Airport in Bath County, Virginia, according to an airport representative. The twin-jet aircraft was not initially set to land at the airport, and the representative said they did not know where it was headed. The plane crashed below the runway, around 3 p.m. local time.
