1 dead in plane crash off San Francisco Bay

REDWOOD SHORES, Calif. (AP) — A 40-year-old woman was found dead next to the wreckage of a small plane that crashed Thursday in a lagoon off San Francisco Bay, officials said. Divers were searching for two more people who may have been on board.

Redwood City Fire Battalion Chief Dave Pucci says the twin-engine Beechcraft crashed at 11:53 a.m. today in a lagoon in the city’s Redwood Shores neighborhood, near the offices of Oracle Corp.

The plane took off minutes earlier from San Carlos airport about a mile away.

Pucci said divers who reached the wreckage found no one else inside the plane and were searching the dark, murky waters for two other people who may have been on board.
