11-year-old is sole survivor in plane crash after father bear-hugged her to protect her before being killed himself
The Independent says An 11-year-old girl whose father died protecting her was the sole surviver of a plane crash on Lake Michigan’s Beaver Island this weekend.
Laney Perdue was on the commuter plane with her father and three others on Saturday when it crashed at the Welke Airport on Beaver Island. She was in a critical condition but is now recovering at a children’s hospital in Grand Rapids, Michigan. All four adults died.
She was the only survivor because her realtor father Mike Perdue from Gaylord bear-hugged her, thereby protecting her from the impact when the plane went out of control.
