The Marion County Sheriff's Office responded to the area of SW 60th Avenue and 38th Street in Ocala around 12:30 p.m. on Friday, after a small plane crashed into a pasture.

The Cessna 340 Alpha model plane was headed for the Ocala International Airport but crashed just south of its destination.

The passenger, Carol Golson, 55, was pulled from the plane by citizens that witnessed the crash. Carol was taken to an area hospital with non-life threatening injuries. The pilot, Paul Allen Golson, 55, did not survive the crash.

The last contact Golson made with the air tower was at 12:26 p.m. to report he was coming in for a landing. Investigators estimate the crash occurred immediately following this contact.

The cause of the crash is now being investigated by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the National Transportation and Safety Board (NTSB).
