PEACE RIVER, Alta. – The Transportation Safety Board of Canada will deploy a team to probe an aircraft accident that happened Tuesday afternoon at an airport in northern Alberta.

Two passengers are believed to have been on board. RCMP won’t say anything about injuries or deaths but say that TSB has now taken over the investigation.
Mounties add that Transport Canada has been notified of the crash.
