Kent Warren from Utah County has passed away when he crashed a powered hang glider into a power line in Springville, Utah. Friends of Mr. Warren say that Warren loved a good adventure and danger did not deter him from the sport he loved. Springville police say that 59-year-old Warren was trying to take off from the field of the Springville Junior High School when he clipped the power lines at the far edge of the athletic field. His son Sam was there videotaping the entire event. According to Sam and the KSL news, Warren felt that he was clear of the power lines and had space to get airborne. As he clipped the power line he was thrown down onto the asphalt and died on impact.
What a horrible accident, I offer Mr. Warren’s family my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. My heart goes out to Sam, who had to witness the tragic death of his father.
