11 people were killed in Ngorongoro Crater on
Wednesday when a light aircraft flying to the Serengeti National Park, crashed.
The Cessna Caravan light airplane, carrying a pilot and 10
passengers, was flying tourists from the northern Tanzanian town of Arusha when
it went down in the Ngorongoro crater at about 0800 GMT, Coastal Aviation said
in a statement.
The Tanzanian air charter company said the identities of the
dead would be withheld until their families are notified.
“This is devastating,” the company said. The cause of the
accident was unknown, police said.
The nationalities of the tourists on board the aircraft
could not be immediately established.
