Who wanted them dead?
"Residents believe crash into lot saved lives" Associated Press October 14, 2014
CHICAGO — Residents in a suburban Chicago neighborhood were looking Monday at scattered pieces of a small plane that crashed hours before, wondering whether the last act of a pilot before his death was to find a vacant lot on a street crowded with houses to spare lives.
‘‘It looks like he aimed for the one vacant spot,’’ said Barbara Janusz, who lives with her daughter’s family in a house in Palos Hills where she said the plane’s wings came to rest. ‘‘I’m sure he sacrificed his own life for everybody else’s, bless his soul.’’
Palos Hills Deputy Police Chief James Boie had the same thought after looking around the neighborhood and hearing that neighbors had told authorities they had heard a sputtering plane engine and that it appeared the aircraft was circling before it crashed — a maneuver that could suggest a desperate search to land a crippled aircraft.
‘‘I’d like to think that,’’ he said.
