Plane Crash Kills Vegas Comic John Yonely and Wife
A light plane wreckage was found near Rock Springs Wyoming, killing television and nightclub comedian John Yonely and his wife Sarah. Yonely, from Joliet Illinois, was en route to the Rock Springs airport when the Cessna 310 ran out of fuel during an instrument approach on Christmas Day. The crash was located after a radar trace and a teenage son guided searchers to a snow‑dusted gully five and a half miles east of the airport. Four planes and fourteen ground teams had scoured the area before dawn. Yonely had warned during a war radio transmission that he was low on gas.
