Authorities have recovered the remaining two bodies from a small plane that crashed into the ocean waters off of Long Island, killing all three people aboard.
According to the Coast Guard, divers located the bodies Sunday after finding the aircraft wreckage in about 20 feet of water about a mile south of Quogue, New York, in the Hamptons.
Their identities have not yet been released.
The first body, identified as Raj Persaud, 41, of Waterbury, Connecticut, was found Saturday.
The three were in a twin-engine Piper PA-34 that left Connecticut Saturday morning and was heading to South Carolina when it crashed.
AP wire services helped contribute to this report.
