DELAND, Fla. (AP) -- Federal authorities have not yet identified the passengers of a small plane that clipped a power line and crashed in central Florida, killing one passenger.

The plane's second passenger was taken to the hospital. The person's condition has not been released.

Authorities say the single-engine plane clipped a power line shortly after takeoff and flipped, crashing on U.S. 92 in DeLand Saturday afternoon.
