Officials are preparing a mass casualty protocol after a passenger plane crashed along the Alberta boundary in Canada.

 

Authorities have not confirmed the number of deaths, however chief coroner of the Northwest Territories Garth Eggenberger confirmed to CBC that a number of passengers had been killed in the crash near Fort Smith Tuesday morning.

 

“At this time, we can confirm there are fatalities but we will not be providing any additional information pending next of kin notifications,” Eggenberger said.

 

Sources told local Canadian radio station CKLB Radio that at least 10 people perished in the crash at Fort Smith Tuesday morning. At least one survivor was being treated for severe burns, the outlet reported.

 

CKLB said the flight’s final destination was Yellowknife, further north of the crash site.
