Haven't seen this mentioned, but there was a small plane crash near the Tupelo airport shortly after 8:30 this morning that killed 4. Apparently they were making a fuel stop on their way from Texas to Virginia and had mechanical problems (smoke in the cockpit) shortly after takeoff.

It happened yesterday morning. NTSB said on the news that parts from the exhaust system were found on the runway today during their investigation/sweep of the area. They have a witness that observed part(s) falling from the plane when it was taking off.
