A small plane crashed into a house Sunday afternoon, killing the pilot and
destroying half of the home. The family inside the house escaped without injury.
The single-engine airplane crashed about 5:30 p.m. The pilot, the only one in
the plane, was trying to make an emergency landing at the airport.
The pilot’s body was found on the bed in the master bedroom. The plane
crashed into one end of the house, where the three bedrooms were. That part of
the house was wrecked. The Carols, who own the house, were all at home eating
dinner.
“Oh, my gosh,” said Mrs. Carol, “I thought the world had come to an end. I
never heard such a loud sound. We all ducked under the table, thinking it was
another earthquake. When nothing else happened, we got brave and decided to
investigate.”
They immediately called 911 when they discovered the cause of the
thunderous sound. The family was lucky because there was no fire. Authorities
suspect that a lack of fuel contributed to the crash. Mr. Carol said that they
might have to move out until they can get the house repaired. The police will
release the pilot’s name after they have notified his next of kin. |
