Five people perished when a domestic airliner crashed and caught fire just short of a runway in Red Lake, Ontario, Canada, the police force said.
Two people made it through the Bearskin Flight tragedy Sunday night, said Ontario police Sgt . Rob McDonough. He said a gentleman passenger was able to draw out a female passenger to safety before the aircraft was overwhelmed by fire.
Two pilots and three passengers passed away. These folks were not recognised.
McDonough said almost everyone aboard was a Canadian native.
The 19-passenger Metro Fairchild had taken off from Sioux Lookout.
The Transportation Safety Board of Canada said its investigators would arrive at the location Monday.
