GREENWOOD, Ind. -- A woman was pronounced dead after a small plane crashed near I-65 and Main Street in Greenwood on Wednesday.

Just before 11 a.m. Wednesday, the small plane began making a series of strange aerial maneuvers before it slammed into a grassy ditch, killing the pilot who was the only person onboard.

Multiple witnesses saw the plane lose control before nose-diving into the ground just a few feet behind a gas station.

“The plane was kind of banking and they started to lower and then pulled up and started to roll and I thought it's like a sky show and they went straight into the ground,” said witness Amanda Landwerlen.

“She was banking hard left to go north, and all ofa sudden, the nose dove and she went into a spin and just went straight down,” said witness Frank Williams.
