OCEAN CITY -- Prior to nightfall yesterday, authorities on the scene of a plane crash in north Ocean City were fairly confident they located a debris field, but strong currents and limited visibility prevented a dive team from entering the water to make a confirmation.Last night, it was confirmed by 10 knowledgeable sources that two off-duty members of the Ocean City Police Department have been identified as the pilot and passenger in the two-seat Nanchang CJ-6A that took off from the Ocean City Municipal Airport yesterday and crashed into the ocean off 130th Street.
Although there has been no official word from the OCPD, it’s widely known in the law enforcement community that two men in blue have perished in the accident witnesses by thousands of beach-goers on a hot, humid summer afternoon. No names will be released until the OCPD issues an official statement on crash victims.

If Ocean City has divers why were they not used? If they did not have enough divers there are jurisdictions near them that could assist, Millville FD, SalisburyFD, and others. Why did they wait until today for MSP to show up?
anonymous 1:10, You need to understand the conditions.
The current is so bad right now they cannot dive. The plane is in shallow water making it a hundred times worse. If the plane was in deeper water they'd have a better chance at recovery.
One thing I can assure you of, IF there was ANY possible way they could get down there and recover them, they would. We don't need more losses so let the professionals do their job without criticism, please.
Amen Joe..Two lives are all ready gone...Lets keep our divers and other recovery people safe..Rip to both of the Officers..and Joe that was a very good answer...straight and to the point as always..God be with these mens famlies....
