Crash Victims Identified

Two of three men who were killed in Friday's plane crash in a remote section of northwestern Ontario have been identified.

Cat Lake First Nation search coordinator Russell Wesley, says Ronald Ombash of Cat Lake and Dean Meekis, formerly of Deer Lake, were both passengers aboard the Lockhart Air Service charter plane that went down southwest of the community.

Wesley, who says he was related to both men, says their deaths are a great loss for the community and grief counselling has been made available.

The pilot has not yet been identified.
