A few of the Michael Connell plane crash details

Michael Connell, 45, of Akron, died in the crash, said Ohio State Highway Patrol spokesman Lt. Tony Bradshaw. The crash sparked a fire that damaged the garage of the house, which is in foreclosure.

No one on the ground was injured. There were no passengers in the plane, a Piper Saratoga.

Airport spokeswoman Kristie VanAuken said the pilot was attempting to land at Akron-Canton Airport, which is about two miles from the house, before the crash. The plane went down in a residential area surrounded by farmland.

Early reports indicate the plane took off from Pennsylvania, Bradshaw said.

Neighbors told The Canton Repository that they heard what sounded like an engine sputtering before the crash and that the noise sounded like it was coming from a plane.

The pilot killed in a Lake Township plane crash Friday evening had connections to the White House and high-ranking Republican officials as an Internet consultant.

An autopsy on Michael L. Connell, 45, of Akron, is planned for today as local, state and federal investigators continue to look into the cause of the Friday night plane crash in a Lake Township residential neighborhood.

He was the only one killed in the crash.

Connell was heading to runway 23 at the Akron-Canton Airport when he crashed about 6 p.m. outside a vacant home at 2017 Charolais St. NW, about three miles short of his destination.

4. His engine may well have been sputtering, but odds are it wasn't for lack of gas.
Just saying...
