Coast Guard Locates Debris From Missing Medical Plane Near Nantucket

The US Coast Guard confirmed late Saturday that it had found debris from a Gulfstream G100 medical aircraft flying off the coast of Nantucket, Massachusetts. The plane was carrying six people, including four Canadian citizens and two Bermudian nationals, on a flight from Bermuda to Boston when contact was lost early in the morning. An air traffic controller recorded an emergency declaration at 12:46 a.m., though radio responses were initially unclear before the pilot confirmed the status. Authorities have been searching for survivors since Saturday as rescue teams continue operations near Nantucket island.
