The national safety agency released few details about the accident involving a privately registered Quad City Challenger 11 ultralight aircraft.

The safety board says one person was involved in the incident that happened on Saturday in Dugald, a community about 25 kilometres east of Winnipeg.

Oakbank RCMP confirmed they responded to a “small plane crash” around 11 a.m.

Police did not immediately answer questions about the condition of the individual involved in the crash.
