BOUNTIFUL, Utah — A small plane crashed at the Skypark Airport in Bountiful Tuesday morning, according to authorities.
South Davis Metro Fire Battalion Chief Josh Hardy said the small single-engine plane with a single pilot crashed near the airport runway after 10 a.m.
The pilot was able to get out of the plane on their own and only had minor injuries, according to Hardy, but the pilot denied medical attention.
The plane was leaking fuel from the wing, and fire crews were able to stop the leak, Hardy said.
