A single-engine plane trying to make an emergency landing off of Northwest Expressway hit a tree and crashed in a ditch in front of a Bank of Oklahoma on Saturday morning.
Five people were aboard the plane when it crashed. Two adult men and three adult women were taken to a local hospital in serious to critical conditions.
