Plane crash on Southern California golf course leaves 2 hospitalized

CARSON, Calif. (KTLA) – A small aircraft crash landed onto a golf course Sunday in Carson.  

Details are extremely limited and it’s unclear how the crash occurred, but officials with the Los Angeles County Fire Department said crews responded to the Victoria Golf Course, located at 340 Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. at around 3:45 p.m., on reports of the downed plane.  

In footage of the crash posted to the Citizen App the damaged aircraft, which appears to be upside down, can be seen beneath a low-lying limb of a nearby tree just off what a practice putting green.  

The area where the plane came to a stop had been cordoned off with yellow tape by deputies with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, who were also at the crash site.  

Not far away, debris from the crash, possibly a part that came off the aircraft, can be seen on the ground.  

The golf course did not appear closed for the investigation as golfers very near to the crash site continued playing even as first responders worked nearby.  

It’s unclear how many people were in the aircraft when it went down, but at least two people were taken to the hospital with minor injuries, L.A. County Fire confirmed to KTLA.
