NTSB investigates plane crash that killed ND state senator, family near Moab

The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating the cause of a plane crash that killed a North Dakota state senator, his wife, and two youngest children outside of Moab. Douglas Larsen’s single engine aircraft crashed shortly after take-off Sunday night in a remote area bordering Moab’s airport. The NTSB is currently on scene at the airport, working on a preliminary report of the crash. And later in the newscast, our radio partners report on a new review of Native American boarding schools in Colorado. Plus, people are using new technology to find private property to hunt in our region.
