Oregon officials have identified the victims who lost their lives after a small plane precipitously dropped out of the sky and crashed through the roof of a home on Tuesday as video emerged showing the aircraft spiraling out of control to the ground.
Police in Newberg, a small city about 25 miles southwest of Portland, said 20-year-old Barrett Bevacqua and 22-year-old Michele Cavallotti were the two victims found dead at the scene. Cavallotti was an instructor at the pilot training school Hillsboro Aero Academy and Bevacqua was a student pilot, the Newburg-Dundee Police Department said in a news release.
The third passenger, 20-year-old Emily Hurd, was airlifted to a hospital with serious injuries. A social media post from a woman who says she is Hurd's mother says she was in surgery all night Tuesday with several broken bones but her "spinal cord is intact."
