At Novato’s Gnoss Field on Monday morning, emergency personnel are responding to a tiny plane that looks to have gone off the runway and crashed into a ditch.
Just before 11 a.m., a PulsePoint alert was issued in Marin County, indicating that a small plane had crashed near 451 Airport Road in Novato, which is the location of Gnoss Field.
Firefighters and air field personnel from Novato were seen on aerial footage at the area of the incident. Alongside the landing strip, the small plane was nose down at the edge of what looked like a drainage ditch. There was no sign of any significant damage to the aircraft.
There have been no reports of injuries related to the incident as of yet. Authorities have been contacted by CBS News Bay Area for more details. In late August, a Mayer Aero Commander 200D crashed into a hangar at Gnoss Field, resulting in a deadly small-plane accident.
Later, the sheriff’s office coroner division confirmed that the pilot was Jeffrey Buren Khahling, a 75-year-old resident of Redding.
