Breaking News: 10 Seat Passenger Plane Down Near

According to reports from the Washington County Sheriff's Department, there may have been a plane crash in the Winslow/Brentwood area involving a 10 seater airplane. Crews are currently on scene in Washington County now.

According to the Sheriff's Department, a plane lost altitude and may have crashed in the area. They went on to say in a Facebook post that "Ft. Smith Air Traffic Control reported a possible crash as well." WCSD also said they "have deputies and other area law enforcement agencies in the area searching for the airplane now but nothing has been located at this time. We will update this post as soon as we learn more," in a statement.

Round Mountain Volunteer Fire Department is on the scene and setting up a staging area near Oak Grove Cemetery off Brentwood Mountain. Reports seem to point to the incident happening somewhere between Highway 71 and Oak Grove.

According to the Arkansas National Guard, their black hawk was on a training mission and unofficially is assisting agencies in Washington County. The aircraft wasn't officially requested, as that would come from the county judge through to the Governor and then to the Arkansas National Guard.
