MILLERSBURG, Ore.—Witnesses react to what they heard and saw on Friday after an ultralight aircraft crashed into a field behind Deciduous Avenue in Millersburg.
Neighbor Gerald Shanks was in the backyard with his dog when he heard the ultralight coming.
“I looked up, and it was going northbound, and all of a sudden, it started turning to the west,” Shanks said. “I saw it come right down our yards, on our street.”
