A small plane has crashed at the Burning Man Festival near Gerlach.

Officials say one person was taken to Washoe Medical Center for treatment, but no further information was available.

Authorities from Washoe and Pershing counties say they are investigating the accident.

The Burning Man Festival, which is in the desert 120 miles north of Reno, is an annual festival billed as a celebration of radical self-expression and radical self-reliance. The weeklong event last year drew more than 30,000 people.
