Four feared dead in Polish navy plane crash

Poland's navy says one of its planes has crashed with four people on board in northern Poland.

Spokesman Bartosz Zajda said the Russian-made transport plane crashed at 4pm (0400 NZT) Tuesday at the Babie Doly airport near the Baltic port of Gdynia. It was returning from a training flight.

Zajda did not comment on casualties but Defense Minister Bogdan Klich told Poland's TVN24 television that the four people aboard had been killed.
