Police spokeswoman Charity Charamba said Thursday that the
Cessna 206 plane crashed while transporting gold from Bulawayo to Harare, the
capital.
Charamba says one person on the plane suffered minor
injuries in Tuesday's crash. Civil aviation officials say the pilot made a
distress call to report engine failure before losing contact with airport staff
in Bulawayo.
The state-run Chronicle newspaper says the plane was
carrying 22 kilograms (48.5 pounds) of gold worth about $800,000. Police and
aviation officials say they do not know how much gold was being transported.
