SCOTT CITY, Kan. (AP) The Kansas Highway Patrol says the pilot of a crop duster was injured when his plane crashed in a field in the southwestern part of the state.
The crash happened Friday morning in rural Finney County, about 15 miles south of Scott City. The patrol identified the pilot as 64-year-old John Crist, of Garden City.
KAKE-TV reports Crist had taken off from an airstrip and flown about a mile when the single-engine plane lost power and crashed. The station says Crist was taken to a hospital with several broken bones.
