BOULDER, Colo. (AP) -- A single-engine airplane crashed and exploded in foothills northwest of Boulder, killing the only person on board, a sheriff's spokesman said Saturday.
The four-seat Cessna 180 went down on a hillside before 4 p.m., Boulder County Sheriff's Supervisor Jay Willette said.
He did not know where the flight originated or where it was headed.
Kimberly Kenyon, a Federal Aviation Administration air traffic controller at the Jefferson County Airport, said winds were strong in the area Saturday afternoon, gusting up to 50 mph.
