A seven-year-old girl survived when a small plane
in which she was flying with her family crashed in the
Kentucky woods, killing her parents, an older sister and
a cousin, police said on last Saturday. The surviving
daughter was able to walk to a nearby home to sek help,
police said. She was then taken to an area hospital and
treated for minor injuries before being taken away by
a family member early this morning, said Kentucky
State Police spokesman.
An area homeowner, Larry Wilkins, told CNN that
the girl was crying and bloodied when she showed up at
his door, nearly a mile from the crash site, and told him
her parents were dead. “She's a terribly brave little
girl.” Wilkins said.
