BDC - Plane Crash - 7-5-11

SUMMIT VALLEY • VV Daily Press - The small Cessna airplane that crashed into a parked car and then rolled into a house had just taken off from Hesperia Airport just before the incident, San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Hesperia station officials said.
“It appears it went through a field before striking the vehicle, then sheering off the wing which caused fuel to spill and finally coming to rest on the house,” Sgt. Colleen Kuhn said.
Sandy Banberg was at home with her son and his girlfriend when the aircraft crashed. No one in the home was hurt in the incident.
It was first reported the pilot and passenger of the Cessna had been transported to the hospital with minor injuries, but San Bernardino County Fire officials at the scene stated the two refused medical treatment.
