USA – Two people were rescued early Monday, more than six hours after their small plane crashed into live power lines, causing widespread outages in Montgomery County, Maryland.

Fire Chief Scott Goldstein said the plane got stuck in the lines about 100 feet above the ground at around 5:40pm, Sunday.

Responders secured it to the tower just after midnight Monday, rescuing the pilot and passenger, half an hour later. Utility contractors disconnected high-tension wires to make it safe for rescuers to stabilize the plane.
