Four die in plane crash near Guthrie Center Friday

November 11, 2018 By Matt Kelley

Four people died in this plane crash near Guthrie Center.

Guthrie County authorities say the pilot of a small-plane that crashed in a cow pasture Friday evening suffered a heart attack.

The victims have been identified as 49-year-old Edward Anderson, 36-year-old Patrick Kellen, and 15-year-old Samantha Clark – all of Le Mars – and 28-year-old Tyler Douvia of Merrill. Anderson was the pilot.

Officials at the Guthrie Center Airport were told Anderson had a heart attack and a student pilot would be attempting an emergency landing. The plane never arrived at the airport and dropped off radar. An extensive search for the plane ended around 6:30 Saturday morning when a Guthrie County resident discovered the wreckage in a pasture in rural Guthrie Center.

(This story was updated at 12:30 to correct identity of pilot)
