Monterey County plane crash victims recovered; 3 found dead
The United States Coast Guard said three people were recovered and found unresponsive after a plane crash in Monterey County on Saturday. Search and rescue crews recovered the three unresponsive passengers on Sunday, the Coast Guard said. Just before 11 p.m., the Coast Guard Station in Monterey was alerted to a twin-engine Beechcraft that had crashed between 200-300 yards off Point Pinos. The Coast Guard said three people were on board. A boat and helicopter crew responded to the scene and located the Beechcraft. One person was found unresponsive around 3 a.m., the Coast Guard said. The other two were found unresponsive inside the aircraft later Sunday morning, officials said. According to the Coast Guard, the plane took off from the San Carlos airport. Pacific Grove Police said they received calls about the plane crash after 10 p.m. and were told it crashed near the coastline of Asilomar State Beach. One Pacific Grove resident said he heard a plane circling his neighborhood and then a loud thump about 30 seconds later. The Monterey County Sheriff's Office identified the three victims as 60-year-old Steve Eugene Clatterbuck of Salinas, 36-year-old James Vincent of Monterey and 44-year-old Jamie Lee Tabscott of Monterey. The office said in a statement that, "The family and friends of the deceased have expressed that they wish to extend their gratitude for the outpouring of support from the community. They ask for privacy during this difficult time." Pacific Grove Police, the Monterey Fire Department, Monterey County Sheriff's Office and San Mateo County Sheriff's Office, Cal Fire and the Coast Guard were all at the scene. The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating the crash.
