Boone County Coroner’s Office Rebecca A. Wigget has identified two men killed in a June 28 plane crash near Capron.
They were Scott M. Wentz, 60, of Grayslake and Kenneth C. Serzynski, 74, of Beach Park, according to a news release.
They had been travelling in a Vans RV-10 aircraft, a four-seat, single-engine plane, according to published reports. It apparently crashed in a farm field.
An autopsy conducted June 30 showed the men died as result of injuries suffered in the crash.
The deaths remain under investigation by the Boone County Coroner’s Office, Boone County Sheriff’s Department and the Federal Aviation Administration.
