(LEESBURG,Va.) - Two people have died and one person is seriously injured after 
a small plane crash near downtown Leesburg Saturday. 
Federal Aviation Administration spokeswoman Arlene Salac says the Socata TBM 
700 turboprop plane crashed in someone's back yard at Market and Ayr streets at 
3:15 p.m. 

All three victims were inside of the plane, which can carry four to six 
passengers and there is no indication that anyone on the ground was hurt. 

Salac says the plane was cleared to land at Leesburg Executive Airport -- two 
miles from the crash site. 

She says the National Transportation Safety Board will investigate. 

Police, fire and hazmat units are now on the scene.
