FOUR people have been killed after a plane struck power lines and crashed into a road.

No survivors were found after the tragic accident on Saturday morning in Trilla, Illinois.

Local police said the single-engine plane crashed just 200 miles south of Chicago at around 10:15am.

The deadly crash occurred after the plane hit a set of power lines, according to CBS News.

Police confirmed that all four victims were from Wisconsin.

Two men and two women were killed according to the coroner, but their identities are still unknown.

The Federal Aviation Administration confirmed the crash, saying that four people were on board the Cessna 180 which crashed in a field southeast of Coles County Memorial Airport.

It is still unclear where the plane departed from and where it was going.

Local authorities said that the Federal Aviation Administration was on scene investigating.

The National Transportation Safety Board is expected to arrive on Sunday to launch a probe.

Illinois State Police told People: “ISP Troop 7 was notified of a small single-engine plane crash at the above location.

“All four occupants were from Menomonie, Wis., and were pronounced deceased on scene.”

They added: “The aircraft remains in the roadway and the roadway will be shut down until later today.

“This in an active and ongoing investigation.”

Dramatic footage showed the plane’s burning remnants on the ground as investigators approached the scene.

Crash witness Kynnedi Goldstein told CBS News Chicago: “I was getting ready to turn a show on and all of a sudden I hear this noise.

“It’s like the whole ‘boom,’ and then our power went out for a second, and then our generator kicked on.

“So then I go out to our sunroom, and I look, and there’s a huge pile of smoke.”

Illinois Governor JB Pritzker said the news was “terrible” and thanked the first responders who rushed to the scene in a statement on X.

The deadly crash is the latest in a spate of horror plane accidents.

On Friday, three people died after a plane crash landed in a river in Nebraska.

Days earlier, an eight-year-old girl was among six people who died in a helicopter crash over the Hudson River.

Siemens executive Agustin Escobar, his wife, their three children, and a pilot all perished in the disaster.

Chilling footage of a separate crash site showed the remains of a private plane which killed a family of top doctors.

The parents, two children, and the children’s partners all died when their plane plunged on their way to the Catskills for a birthday and Passover celebration last Saturday.

Investigators shared a harrowing video of the aircraft wreckage ripped apart in a muddy field in Copake, New York, just 10 miles from the airport it was headed toward.
