A single-engine plane crashed Monday in New Smyrna Beach, causing a small brush fire and some road closures.

A pilot was the plane's only occupant, and the Volusia County Sheriff's Office said the pilot suffered "cuts and bruises."

Pioneer Trail in the area of Airport Road was closed because of the crash. A small brush fire broke out after the crash, but it has since been extinguished.
