      RIVIÈRE MOUCHALAGANE, Que. — A small plane crashed Sunday along the Mouchalagane River in northern Quebec.
       
      Quebec air ambulance company Air Medic says two people were killed in the crash and one other person is in critical condition.
       
      Air Medic spokesman Aziz Fikri says the survivor suffered severe burns and was taken to hospital in Sept-Îles.
