None of the passengers are believed to have survived.


Carolina: The body of one of the eight passengers who were aboard a small plane that crashed off the coast of North Carolina, said authorities— adding that none of the remaining seven passengers are believed to have survived.
According to details, the private plane with eight on board including teens on hunting trip crashed into the Atlantic Ocean on Sunday near North Carolina’s Outer Banks killed multiple people, according to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and a representative of the company that owned the aircraft.
A Pilatus PC-12 single-engine airplane crashed about four miles east of Drum Inlet on Sunday, the Coast Guard said in a statement Monday.
As per official statement, personnel with the Coast Guard Sector North Carolina command center received a report of “a possible downed aircraft” from an air traffic controller at Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point, indicating that the “aircraft was seen behaving erratically on radar and then disappeared from the radar screen”.
The report prompted the Coast Guard to launch boat crews from Coast Guard Station Fort Macon and Coast Guard Station Hatteras Inlet and an MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter aircrew from Air Station Elizabeth City.
Searchers have found a debris field in the area, said a Coast Guard spokesperson.
The body of someone on the plane was found Sunday and identified by authorities who declined to name the person and said the search for the seven other people continued.
The FAA said the crash occurred around 2 pm Sunday about 18 miles northeast of Michael J. Smith Field in Beaufort.
