CORINTH, Miss. (WTVA)

Two people were airlifted from the scene of a plane crash in Alcorn County this morning (12/24/15).

Investigators at the scene tell WTVA's Susan Parker the plane had taken off from Roscoe Turner Airport shortly after 8:30 this morning.

The pilot apparently noticed the flap on one of the wings was stuck and attempted to return to the airport.

The plane landed in the yard of a home on County Road 504 southeast of the airport.

Four people were on the plane when it went down.

Two suffered serious injuries and were flown to a hospital for treatment.

The other two were taken to Magnolia Regional Medical Center in Corinth for observation.

Federal investigators are expected to visit the scene and look into what caused the plane to crash.
