LITTLE GRAND RAPIDS, Canada — A regional commuter plane slammed into dense bush in northeastern Manitoba on Tuesday just short of a landing strip, killing three people and injuring 14 others, police said.
The Brazilian-made EMB-110 turboprop aircraft owned by Manitoba-based Sowind Air Ltd. went down in freezing rain near the airport of Little Grand Rapids, an aboriginal community about 170 miles northeast of Winnipeg, the capital of Manitoba province.
