One person was killed Friday when a plane crashed into a strawberry field in Southern California shortly after takeoff and engulfed in flames, according to media reports. The Mooney M20T single-engine collapsed near State Route 101 at around 8:20 a.m. in Ventura County, just north of Los Angeles County. The plane probably hit the side of the Gold Coast Christian Church. The church is located in an office building and the collision caused debris to spill into the north lanes of the highway, Fox Los Angeles reported.
