No sign of survivors after ‘ghost plane’ crashes in Baltic

Associated Press  

BERLIN — Authorities in Latvia said Monday that a search and rescue operation has so far found no sign of survivors from a small plane that crashed in the Baltic Sea. Several European countries scrambled fighter jets as the plane made its way across the continent but were unable to see or contact anyone in the cockpit, German tabloid Bild reported. Peteris Subbota, chief of the Latvian military’s Marine Search and Rescue Coordination Centre, told Latvian Radio on Monday that one piece of the plane had been found on the sea. A Latvian coast guard ship would continue the search at the crash site throughout Monday with help from rescue helicopters from Sweden and Baltic neighbor Lithuania, Subbota said.
