Authorities have identifed three people killed in a small plane crash in Tooele County.
A county spokesman says the dead include passengers Jehrid Miller, 37, and his wife, Angela Miller, 35, of Sandy and pilot Eric Henderson, 39.
Deputies say the Piper Cherokee crashed about two miles north of I-80 near Clive in Utah's west desert.
Officers say the plane left a small airport in Tooele County near the Utah-Nevada border --- and was supposed to arrive in Salt Lake City Wednesday night around nine p.m.
Authorities believe the Millers had chartered the flight.
Wednesday was Angela Miller's birthday.
Deputies say it was reported overdue around 1:30 Thursday morning.
It was located by the Utah Civil Air Patrol about seven a-m.
The Federal Aviation Administration is investigating the crash.
