Two people survived after a small plane crashed in the Long Island Sound Sunday afternoon, law enforcement sources said.

The aircraft appears to have been carrying two people when it went down in the waters off the village of Shoreham in Suffolk County around 1:20 p.m.

Sources said the occupants survived the crash and appeared to have made it to some rocks. They were brought back to land by rescuers.

The cause of the crash is not known.
