Police have identified the two men killed when a small plane nose dived into a field near the Watertown airport.
Police says 37-year-old Chad Lamb and 30-year-old Eric Hopkins died in the Saturday afternoon crash. Both men lived in Watertown.
Investigators are still trying to determine what caused the small plane to crash around 1:30 p.m. Officials say it doesn't appear the plane was trying to land when it crashed because it was a long way from the runway.
