Wreckage of small plane in northern Utah found, no survivors

MORGAN COUNTY, UTAH (BNO NEWS) -- The wreckage of a small plane which was reported missing in northern Utah on Thursday was found on Friday, local and federal officials said. There were no survivors.

The single-engine Cessna 210 aircraft was reported missing at around 7 p.m. local time on Thursday night, but search and rescue teams did not locate the small plane until 11 a.m. local time on Friday near the Morgan County Airport in northern Utah.

Steve Miller, a spokesman for the Utah Wing of the Civil Air Patrol, told KSL Newsradio that the crash site is on a 250-feet (76.2 meters) slope about nine miles (14.4 kilometers) from the Morgan County Airport. The aircraft had taken off from the airport and was flying to Wyoming.

Rescue workers found two fatalities at the scene who were identified as 47-year-old Daleray Madewell and 35-year-old Jennifer Sebest. Madewell was reportedly from the city of Douglas in Wyoming while Sebest was from the nearby town of Glenrock.

The search operation for the aircraft was delayed by snowy weather conditions and low clouds, forcing the sheriff's office to conduct ground operations while the air patrol waited for better weather conditions on Friday.

Local media in Wyoming said both victims were on a flying mission for Wyoming Pilots for Christ. Madewell is survived by his five children and his long-time girlfriend, Denise Murphy. Sebesta, a registered nurse at Memorial Hospital of Converse County, leaves behind three children.
