OSHKOSH, Wis. — An airplane crashed in Lake Winnebago on Saturday, according to local officials.

The Winnebago County Sheriff’s Office received multiple 911 calls about the crash just after 9 a.m. Saturday. The sheriff’s office said there were two people on the plane and recovery efforts for the occupants, and the plane, are ongoing.

The U.S. Coast Guard said the plane is a T-6 Texan.

The Winnebago County Marine Units with Dive Rescue/Recovery Team members, along with the Oshkosh Fire Department, Winneconne Fire Department, Neenah Menasha Fire Rescue, Calumet County Sheriff’s Office, Wisconsin DNR, U.S. Coast Guard, and the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary all responded to the scene to begin an emergency rescue response, authorities said.

“Our thoughts remain with the family and friends of the occupants of the plane,” the Winnebago County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement.

Anyone in the area is being asked to avoid the area of Asylum Bay Boat Launch, so that recovery efforts may continue safely.

The Experimental Aircraft Association, the National Transportation Safety Board and the Federal Aviation Administration are also working with local officials.
