Rep. Mary Peltola's, D-Alaska, office announced Wednesday that her husband died in a plane accident in Alaska.
"We are devastated to share that Mary’s husband, Eugene Peltola Jr. -- 'Buzzy' to all of us who knew and loved him -- passed away earlier this morning following a plane accident in Alaska," Peltola's chief of staff Anton McParland said in a statement on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter.
McParland's statement did not include any details on the crash, but the National Transportation Safety Board Wednesday said it was probing the crash of a single-engine Piper PA 18-150 Super Cub near St. Mary's, a town in western Alaska.
