One body has been recovered from Friday night's hot-air balloon crash (http://mashable.com/2014/05/09/vriginia-hot-air-balloon-catches-fire-and-crashes/?utm_medium=feed&utm_source=rss) in Doswell, Virginia, Virginia State Police spokerperson Corinne Geller told Mashable. Two people are still missing, and recovery efforts are underway
The balloon was one of three participating in the Mid-Atlantic Balloon Festival; it took flight from Meadow Event Park at around 8 p.m. ET on Friday. While two of the balloons landed safely in a field, the third came in contact with a live utility line and quickly caught fire, according to Virginia State Police's Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/VirginiaStatePolice)
