Two dead in Kenosha County plane crash

The Kenosha County Sheriff's office says two men are dead after a plane crash in the town of Bristol. Officials say they were notified by the Winnebago County (WI) Sheriff's Department around 10 a.m. Sunday about a plane due to arrive in Winnebago County that was now 20 hours late. The Zenith CH601XL plane was believed to be en route to the EAA Air Show in Oshkosh.
