Four bodies were recovered Tuesday amid the search for a Piper Seneca that disappeared while flying from the Bahamas to Florida on Labor Day.
Officials with the Royal Bahamas Defense Force and family members of the airplane’s four American occupants confirmed to national and local media outlets that there were no survivors of the apparent crash and that the remains of the occupants are now in police custody.
