Late afternoon today a small private plane crashed into the center field area of the Patriot course. Crews are currently containing the scene. We know of no spectator injuries at this point.

As we hear more information, or who will lead an investigation, we will report it immediately.

UPDATE:

6:00pm – Law enforcement will be issuing a statement soon but we can report two fatalities involved in today’s plane crash. We expect other updates to come from the VA state police and/or the FAA.
