(Casco Township) A paraglider crash in Casco Township last night sent two people to the hospital.
According to St. Clair County Sheriff Tim Donnellon, deputies from the Sheriff’s Office were dispatched to the 5600 block of Palms Road shortly after 7:30 Tuesday evening, along with Ira Township Fire and Rescue and Richmond-Lenox EMS.
Upon arrival, deputies learned that a paraglider being flown by a 69 year old Clay Township man had taken off from a residence in the area with a 6 year old passenger. The paraglider failed to gain altitude quickly enough and struck high tension power lines, causing the aircraft to plummet to the ground.
The pair was taken by Richmond-Lenox EMS to McLaren Macomb Hospital with undetermined injuries for evaluation.
The National Transportation Safety Board was notified of the incident and will be investigating.

Marathon County Sheriff's Office
On Wednesday, August 12, 2020, at approximately 6:28 a.m., the Marathon County 911 Communications Center received a report of a downed aircraft in a field approximately five miles west of the Central Wisconsin Airport. The caller advised there was a single occupant (pilot) and no injuries. Deputies from the Marathon County Sheriff’s Office responded to the area in an attempt to locate the aircraft. The Sheriff’s Office was provided support, from the Central Wisconsin Airport, in the search.
At approximately 7:21 a.m., phone contact was made with the pilot and he was able to relay his current location near the intersection of Skyview road and State Highway 153 in the Township of Emmet. Deputies located the small, single engine aircraft and the pilot. The pilot was not injured and there appeared to be no damage to the aircraft.
Upon investigation, the pilot was leaving Central Wisconsin Airport and flying to Eau Claire. Shortly after takeoff, the pilot lost engine power and was able to make a successful emergency landing in a field. The pilot was able to determine the problem and fix the aircraft. The pilot worked with the farmer, who combined a makeshift runway in the field for the pilot to take off. After several attempts, the pilot was unable to get up to speed to take off from the field.
At approximately 4:37 p.m., deputies were able to briefly shut down a section of State Highway 153. The pilot was able to use the highway as a runway to take off, and continue on his way to Eau Claire. The Marathon County Sheriff’s Office will be forwarding the information to the Federal Aviation Administration. Additional information may be obtained through an open records request in reference to case number 20.3061.

A small airplane made a safe emergency landing on the beach on Sanibel Island Wednesday afternoon, both the city and Federal Aviation Administration confirmed.
According to the Federal Aviation Administration and city press releases, a Piper PA-25-235 operated by a pilot for Aerial Banners Inc landed on the beach near West Gulf Beach Drive around 1:30 p.m.
The Piper model is a single-engine, single-seat aircraft, and the pilot was the sole occupant of the plane.
Upon landing safely, the pilot called Sanibel police and told them the plane began to sputter for unknown reasons, so the pilot released the banner he was flying and made the emergency landing on the beach.
Many people told us they’ve seen the plane towing its banner from up above frequently, but it’s not something most locals are used to seeing up close.
“I’ve never seen that before,” witness Matt Johnson said. “I was born and raised here, grew up in and around Sanibel and Pine Island, and I’ve never seen a plane on the beach like that.”
Witness Linda Linsmayer saw it all, from when the wheels touched down to when the plane took off back into the sky.
“It wasn’t your average afternoon looking for dolphins and manatees from the house. No,” Linsmayer said. “I could clearly hear sputtering and knew right away there was a problem.”
The 23-year-old pilot told WINK News carburetor ice caused the engine to malfunction, and he started losing altitude. That’s when he dropped the banner, now lost in the ocean, and made a safe landing on a mostly empty beach, avoiding people and turtle nests.
“I hollered right away, “Are you OK?” Linsmayer said. “And he said, ‘I’m just a little shaken, but I’m just great.'”
Beachergoers are glad everyone is OK, and witnesses praised him for a job well done.
“He did what he had to do,” witness Charlotte Wilcox said. “He did it very well, obviously.”
“I thought he did an absolutely brilliant job,” Linsmayer said.
Lee County Sheriff’s Office, Sanibel Fire Department and US Coast Guard are all on scene. Federal Aviation Administration and Lee County Port Authority are both aware of the emergency landing.
The Federal Aviation Administration is expected to investigate the incident.
There were no injuries reported due to the landing.
We reached out to Aerial Banners Inc but are still waiting to hear back.
According to FlightAware, the plane is back on the east coast.
