GREENSBURG, Ind. —  

Investigators said the remains of four people were found where a plane crashed Sunday night  in southeastern Indiana. Their identities have not been released.

The Federal Aviation Administration in Indianapolis said it lost  radar contact with the plane shortly before 6:30 p.m. Sunday and notified the Emergency Management Agency and the Greensburg Police Department. About that time a civilian had placed an emergency call to the Decatur County Sheriff’s Department reporting a plane crash.

Members of the National Transportation Safety Board  were expected to arrive at the southeastern Indiana crash site  Monday. The plane was discovered on uneven terrain, officials said.
