RANDOLPH COUNTY, Mo. (KMOV) – A crop duster pilot was killed when his plane crashed just north of Huntsville in Mid-Missouri on Friday.

According to the Randolph County Sheriff’s Officer, the plane crashed in a field near County Road 1160.

Randolph County Sheriff Mark Nichols says the victim’s name hasn’t been released.

He says the crop-dusting plane was stationed in Chariton County, but the sheriff’s department hasn’t confirmed the name of the flying service.
