Four people okay after small plane veers off runway in Chilliwack

Four people were able to walk away from a small plane crash in Chilliwack this afternoon.

RCMP Corporal Keith Harwood says the Cessna was coming in to land around 1:00.

“Ran into a little bit of trouble and it veered off the runway slightly and came to rest in a ditch just on the edge of the runway.”

Heavy winds may have played a role.

Transportation Safety Board officials will be investigating.
