Two people involved in a late afternoon plane crash suffered non-life threatening injuries.

Hutchinson Police Services said in a statement the small plane went down around 3:45 p.m. at Hutchinson Municipal airport. Police identified the two occupants as David Walters of Oregon and Jean Galloway of North Carolina.

By the time the police arrived, both were out of the plane, conscious and being tended to by the Life Link crew stationed at the airport.

The FAA's Great Lakes Region spokesman, Tony Molinaro, said the two-passenger plane is home-built.

FAA records show it's registered to Don Walters from Covington, Ga.
