Manitoba RCMP say a man was taken to hospital with minor injuries Sunday afternoon when a crop-dusting plane he was flying crashed into some trees in the RM of Bifrost.
Officers from the Gimli detachment were called to the scene, south of the intersection of Highway 68 and Highway 233, around 1:10 p.m., where they learned the 33-year-old pilot had been spraying a field when one of his wings clipped a tree.
