A pilot was hospitalized Thursday night after his small plane crashed in rural Winona County.
That crash was reported just before 7:00 p.m. near the intersection of Winona County Road 33 and Winona County Road 6.
Investigators say the 62-year-old man was attempting to make an emergency landing when the crash happened, adding that the pilot was experiencing engine trouble.
The crash happened just two weeks after a 74-year-old pilot was killed in a plane crash at the Winona airport.
