LEEVILLE, La. (AP) - A sea plane that was trying to take off collided with a small private fishing boat on a bayou Thursday afternoon, killing a man in the boat.
Authorities do not believe the plane, operated by Chevron Corp., became airborne before the wreck. It sank to the bottom of a shallow part of Bayou Lafourche, with part of it remaining above the surface.
Three people in the plane were taken to a hospital with minor injuries, Lafourche Parish sheriff's spokesman Larry Weidel said.
