FORT NELSON, B.C. — Rescue officials say a couple from the United States has been killed in a small plane crash in northern British Columbia.

The husband and wife were travelling to Watson Lake from Dawson Creek.

The Joint Rescue Communication Centre in Victoria say the plane veered off course Monday and crashed in the Fort Nelson region.

Officials aren't saying what caused the crash, but says the weather was “active” at the time and could have been a factor.

The identities of the victims have not been released, nor has their hometown. (CKNW)
