Petaluma plane crash takes life of local man

A plane crash in a rural area of Sonoma County has claimed the life of a Fallbrook resident, according to social media reports.

Sonoma County Sheriff’s Department Lt. Eddie Engram said he could not confirm the identity of the plane crash victim, but according to a Facebook post, attorney Carl Morrison was the pilot of the Mooney M20 fixed wing aircraft that crashed in the 3600 block of Manor Lane in Petaluma.

Engram said that the initial call was placed to his department from the U.S. Air Force regarding an emergency transponder activation from a small passenger plane in eastern Petaluma.

Carl was a wonderful man. He will be truly missed. He was on the Fallbrook High School board when we started the paper and he has been a constant advertiser and supporter of Village News. He even defended us against the County when they wrongfully kicked out the kids and the charter school from our Elder House property, ultimately causing us to have to sell the property. Then the Civil Air Patrol, his family and church. Such a loss. Thank you Carl for everything. Prayers to Mary and the family.
