State police have identified the two victims of yesterday's
deadly small plane crash at the Jersey
Shore.
The dead are pilot and
plane owner John Ambroult, 60, of Eastham, Massachusetts, and 41-year-old Stephen Claussen of Seattle.
Two other passengers
were injured when the plane crashed in a heavily wooded area near a small
airport in southern Ocean
County late yesterday
afternoon.
The injured were
identified as Jacalyn Brown, 28, of Pemberton and Juan Carlos Salinas, 43, of Mexico City.
No word from state
police Sergeant Stephen Jones on the extent of their injuries. State police
were able to speak with Salinas
after the crash.
It was not immediately clear
what caused the crash.
Stephen Williams, director of
airports for the Delaware River and Bay Authority, says the plane was flying as
part of a federal study of coastal birds and wind currents along the Jersey Shore,
where developers have proposed installing wind turbines.
