Authorities in southeastern Texas say two people suffered minor injuries when their small aircraft crashed into a pond.
The Texas Department of Public Safety says the single-engine aircraft crashed about 8 a.m. Saturday near Willis, about 46 miles north of Houston.
Officials say the 50-year-old pilot and his passenger were transported to a local hospital with minor injuries. They were not immediately identified.
Officials say the pilot declared an emergency shortly before the crash to air traffic controllers in Conroe, about 8 miles south of the crash site. Officials learned a few minutes later that the aircraft had crashed and was upside down in a pond.
The Federal Aviation Administration is investigating the cause of the crash.
