WOOSTER, Ohio (AP) – A crop-dusting plane struck some power lines and trees before it crashed in the front yard of a northeastern Ohio home, leaving the pilot, a Minnesota man, with minor injuries.
The Wayne County Sheriff’s Office says the crash in Wooster occurred around 10:30 a.m. Wednesday, as the plane dusted a farmer’s field.
Authorities say the plane just missed hitting the home. It eventually ended nose up against a tree in the yard.
The pilot, 24-year-old Tyler James Vold of Breckenridge, Minnesota, suffered undisclosed minor injuries but was able to walk away from the wreck.

Goldsboro Police Department will no longer provide school
resource officers at Dillard Middle School.
The Goldsboro City Council voted unanimously Monday for the Goldsboro Police Department to provide one school resource officer to Wayne County Public Schools as opposed to three.
The resource officer will be assigned to Goldsboro High School and the Wayne School of Engineering, said Police Chief Mike West on Wednesday.
Councilman Taj Polack made the motion, which was seconded by Councilman Gene Aycock.
The vote followed a presentation by West who expressed staffing concerns. GPD for years has grappled with double-digit officer vacancies.
âUnfortunately, Iâm here before you to advise you that I am not sufficiently staffed at the Goldsboro Police Department to provide the three SROs to the Wayne County schools,â West said.
