PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — The plane reportedly owned by former Philadelphia Phillies pitcher Roy Halladay crashed in the Gulf of Mexico on Tuesday afternoon.
One person died in the crash. It is not known if Halladay was in the plane, however, Ryan Bass, the sports director at the CBS Tampa affiliate, reports the tail number of the aircraft does match Halladay’s plane.
Halladay previously posted pictures and videos of himself flying his new ICON A5 light-sport aircraft on his Twitter account.
I keep telling my dad flying the Icon A5 low over the water is like flying a fighter jet!
