CANYON LAKE, Texas - Construction workers rushed to rescue two adults and a child after their plane crashed north of Canyon Lake this Labor Day.
Hugo Sanchez was on lunch break with his crew when he said they saw the small plane flying about 15 to 20 feet above a home on Primrose Path.
He said they thought it was going to land on the home. Instead, the Beechcraft G35 Bonanza crashed into a field. Sanchez said his crew immediately ran to help while calling 911.
At the scene, they found a man, woman and a little girl, who they say looked to be around five.
Sanchez said they helped all three victims until paramedics arrived.
Sanchez said he wonders how long the victims might have been without help, if he and his crew had not witnessed the crash
He says the crash was silent, it appeared like the engine had gone out and there was no fire after.
Sanchez told us the woman had a gash on her forehead and the man was bleeding from his ear. Both were flown to a hospital in Kyle, Texas.
"The baby, she didn't have any injuries, but she did seem scared," Sanchez said.
The girl was released to a parent, who arrived at the scene after the crash.
Sanchez said he thinks the three were very lucky. As of Monday night, we've learned the plane took off from Fort Stockton. This is the second plane traveling from west Texas in the last five months to crash at Canyon Lake. The Federal Aviation Administration is taking over the investigation.
