Two men escaped with minor injuries when a small Cessna airplane crashed Sunday in a field in Fort Dick.According to information released by the Del Norte County Sheriff’s Office, Field Morey was piloting a Cessna 182 aircraft with co-pilot Seth Hoffstetter. The plan left Medford, Oregon and had mechanical issues, which forced the duo to crash land the plane in a marshy area near the end of Buzzini Road.While the plane flipped on landing and landed on its top, the two men were able to escape with minor injuries.#placement_573654_0_i{width:100%;max-width:550px;margin:0 auto;}var rnd = window.rnd || Math.floor(Math.random()*10e6);var pid573654 = window.pid573654 || rnd;var plc573654 = window.plc573654 || 0;var abkw = window.abkw || '';var absrc = 'https://ads.empowerlocal.co/adserve/;ID=181918;size=0x0;setID=573654;type=js;sw='+screen.width+';sh='+screen.height+';spr='+window.devicePixelRatio+';kw='+abkw+';pid='+pid573654+';place='+(plc573654++)+';rnd='+rnd+';click=CLICK_MACRO_PLACEHOLDER';var _absrc = absrc.split("type=js"); absrc = _absrc[0] + 'type=js;referrer=' + encodeURIComponent(document.location.href) + _absrc[1];document.write('');The men called 9-1-1 to report the accident, saying they were safe but were stuck in the marsh.
