A man and his daughter were killed when they were struck by a 1972 Piper Cherokee making an emergency landing on Caspersen Beach in Englewood, Florida.
Witnesses say the Cherokee landed just feet from the water’s edge, with the wing potentially extending over the water, as the 36-year-old father and his 9-year-old daughter were walking along the beach Sunday afternoon. The 57-year-old pilot and his 60-year-old passenger were not injured during the landing.
