A small plane crashed on Monday morning in Indianapolis, capital of the north-central U.S. state of Indiana, and the four people aboard survived the accident, NBC reported.

The four people were rescued by bystanders who jumped into a pond and pulled them out of water.

The accident came just one day after the deadliest aircraft crash in the United States in four years, when a Comair flight carrying 50 people crashed in Lexington, Kentucky, on Sunday leaving 49 people dead and one survivor.
