Woman injured after airplane flips at St. Augustine airport


Two people were injured Wednesday after a small plane flipped over shortly after landing at the Northeast Florida Regional Airport in St. Augustine.

For reasons yet to be determined, the plane ran off the runway after landing around 5:30 p.m. and then flipped upside down, according to Florida Highway Patrol.

Rescue crews responded to the scene, but the two people inside the plane were able to walk away, according to St. Johns County Sheriff's Office spokesman Chuck Mulligan. Patricia Wagstaff, the 68-year-old St. Augustine woman who was listed as the pilot of the 1958 Beech K35 airplane, suffered minor injuries but was not taken to a hospital, according to FHP.

No other details were immediately available. FAA will investigate the cause of the incident.
