(UPI) -- The bodies of four persons reported missing Sunday night were found Monday in the wreckage of a private plan that crashed into a wooded area near Vassar, the Kansas Highway Patrol said. The discovery of the Beech Musketeer three miles south of Vassar capped a wide-ranging ground, air and water search near Lake Pomona by state and local authorities. Although the bodies had not been positively identified, they were believed to be Topeka residents. Details from the crash scene were sketchy, but Lieut. Walter Wiltse of the highway patrol said the remnants of the plane were scattered throughout the area "in small pieces." The plane was one of two returning to Topeka from Tulsa and apparently crashed about 8:30 p.m. in what a trooper called "squall" like conditions. A spokesman for the National Transportation Safety Board in Kansas City said an investigator was on his way to the crash site. The crash occurred on the west end of Lake Pomona--not far from the site where a showboat struck by a tornado in June overturned on the lake, killing 15 persons. A spokesman for the Federal Aviation Administration in Tulsa said a plane matching the description of the downed craft left Tulsa at 6:50 p.m. with a destination of Forbes Field in Topeka and had not arrived there by midnight. Authorities at first believed the plane went down near Lake Pomona, about 30 miles southeast of Topeka, but moved the search north when the wreckage was not located in about two hours. "The pilot of the other plane told us he was following the plane that went down," said the spokesman. "He said they were in radio contact when they entered the storm, but lost contact and when he came out of the storm he saw a fireball on the ground. He circled and came back but couldn't find it again." Authorities said the four were believed to be Loren E. Parnell, an insurance agent, and the pilot of the plane; his wife Donna, and Merlyn Broxterman and his wife Mary. Norman Grove, Parnell's brother-in-law, said the four had spent the weekend in Tulsa, combining business with a bowling tournament. Parnell owned the aircraft, Grove said.
