Three people died on Sunday when a glider that was released after being towed by a single-engine plane crashed outside Wallis, authorities said.
When the glider was released at about 5 p.m., it “took a nose dive and crashed into the ground,” according to a statement from the state Department of Public Safety.
Fred Blair, 68, of Wallis, and Matilda Blair, 32, and 3-year-old Andrew Blair of Houston died instantly. The crash occurred near the glider facility at Texas 36 and Cougar Drive, the Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Office said.
