A small plane crashed in a neighborhood in Fremont, Ohio on Sunday, killing all the six people aboard.
Gene Damschroder, 86, a former state lawmaker, was flying the fixed-wing single-engine Cessna when it crashed, according to Ohio police.
All the five passengers who were invited by Damschroder for a joyride also died in the crash.
No one on the ground was injured, and no buildings were damaged, police said.
There was no severe weather in the area at the time, the National Weather Service said.
Investigations are under way.
Damschroder was a World War II pilot who was a certified flight instructor and was licensed to fly both single- and multi-engine planes.
