One body has been recovered from Friday night's hot-air balloon crash 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
