A small aircraft crashed in Kenosha County near the Wisconsin-Illinois border, according to the Kenosha County Sheriff. 

The sheriff said an Ultralight plane went down in Camp Lake Monday night around 7 p.m. Camp Lake is located in Southwest Kenosha County. 

The pilot reportedly climbed out of the plane and swam to shore after crashing it in a lake.

The man is from Antioch, Illinois, and got a ride home after swimming ashore. 

The sheriff’s office is still investigating the crash and may pull the plane out of the water on Tuesday.
