Two people suffered serious injuries when their small plane crashed Thursday morning in Saint-Ours, Que., near Sorel in the Montérégie region.
It was police officers from the Pierre-De Saurel regional county municipality who reportedly answered the call around 9:45 a.m. on Thursday.
The aircraft crashed in a field along des Patriotes Road, and it reportedly took extraction equipment to get the two people out of the plane.
The Sûreté du Québec say the two suffered significant injuries, but their lives are not in danger.
Area firefighters were also called in as reinforcements since the fuel from the aircraft spilled at the scene of the crash.
The cause of the crash is unknown, and no details have been provided regarding the identities of the two injured people.
