(AP) \u2014 US actor Christian Oliver and his two daughters died in a plane crash near a tiny private island in the eastern Caribbean, according to police in St Vincent and the Grenadines.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The crash occurred Thursday just west of Petit Nevis island near Bequia as the plane headed for nearby St Lucia, police said in a statement.<\/p>\n

They identified the daughters as Madita Klepser, 10, and Annik Klepser, 12, adding that the pilot, Robert Sachs, also died.<\/p>

It wasn’t immediately clear what caused the crash, according to police.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Authorities said fishermen and divers in the area went to the crash site to help as the St Vincent and Grenadines Coast Guard headed to the area.<\/p>\n

“The selfless and brave acts of the fishermen and divers is very much appreciated,” police said.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Oliver had dozens of crediting film and television roles, including in the 2008 film “Speed Racer” film and “The Good German,” a 2006 World War II film by Stephen Soderbergh that starred George Clooney and Cate Blanchett.<\/p>\n

He appeared throughout season two of the 1990s series “Saved by the Bell: The New Class,” playing a Swiss transfer student named Brian Keller.<\/p>
