One person suffered serious injuries in a single-passenger plane crash Wednesday morning, Berthoud Fire Protection District confirmed to Denver7.
The Larimer County Sheriff's Office is investigating the crash and said the status of the man who was inside the plane will be released publicly once his family is notified.
Around 8:40 a.m. Wednesday, Andrew Kuiken with Berthoud Fire said crews found a small ultralight aircraft on fire near the dividing line between Larimer and Boulder counties. An ultralight aircraft is a lightweight, simple aircraft designed for recreational flying, according to the Experimental Aircraft Association.
The plane hit some power lines when it went down, according to Berthoud Fire. Crews from Poudre Valley REA (Rural Electrification Administration) are working on fixing the damage to the lines.
