UPDATE: Laos Airline plane crash

No Canadian on board plane that crashed in Laos
Bangkok - Lao Airlines officials say contrary to earlier reports, there was no Canadian aboard the flight that crashed in the Mekong River in southern Laos on Wednesday.

Instead, the airline's CEO Somphone Douangdara said there were three people from Vietnam, not two as originally thought.

The plane crashed at about 4 p.m. near Pakse, which is close to the borders of both Thailand and Cambodia.

On its Facebook page, the airline said all 49 people on board - 44 passengers and five crew members - died.
