3 Utah Men Die in Plane Crash in Texas 1/13/13

Associated Press
January 13, 2013

SALT LAKE CITY - Authorities say three Utah men are dead in a plane
crash in Texas.

The crash occurred Saturday morning shortly after their Piper PA-46 plane
took off from an airport near Paris, Texas.

The Desert News says the Texas Department of Public Safety identified the
men as 50-year-old Michael Endo, 44-year-old Michael Dale Bradley, and
49-year-old Rob Thompson.

The Salt Lake Tribune reports that all three worked for Utah-based Celtic
Bank.

There was no immediate word on the cause of the crash. The Public Safety
Departments says it was reportedly foggy and the plane was headed south before
it attempted to turn back toward the airport and descended rapidly and crashed.

FAA didn't immediately respond to messages from The Associated Press for
comment.
