BUCHAREST, Romania (AP) — Romania’s prime minister ordered an inquiry amid growing public anger Tuesday into why it took authorities hours to locate a plane that crashed into trees on a remote mountain, delaying the arrival of medical help. Two people later died.
The plane was transporting medics from Bucharest to western Romania to harvest organs for transplant when it came down at 1,400 meters (4,600 feet) above sea level. All seven on board initially survived the landing, but sustained serious injuries.
