The Lyon County Sheriff's office said authorities began receiving calls about the crash on Friday night near Stagecoach, Nevada, around 9:15 p.m. and found the wreckage two hours later. Care Flight, which provides ambulance service by plane and helicopter, said the dead included the pilot, a flight nurse, a flight paramedic, a patient and a patient's family member. The crash occurred amid a winter storm warning issued by the National Weather Service in Reno for large swaths of Nevada, including parts of Lyon County.
