PUEBLO COUNTY, COLO. (AP) -- A funeral service for one of the two men killed in a plane crash in Pueblo County is planned later this week.

The family of sheriff's Capt. Leide DeFusco tells The Pueblo Chieftain a service for DeFusco is scheduled for 2 p.m. Friday.

DeFusco and retired Pueblo police Capt. John Barger died last Friday when their plane went down as they searched the mountains for evidence of an illegal marijuana operation.

Services for Barger, a pilot, are pending.
