PAYSON, Utah — A Utah man flew a small plane into his own house early Monday just hours after he had been arrested for assaulting his wife in a nearby canyon where the couple went to talk over their problems, authorities said.

The pilot, Duane Youd, died. His wife and a child who were in the home got out and survived despite the front part the two-story house being engulfed in flames, Payson police Sgt. Noemi Sandoval said.​

Geeze, I've heard of domestic violence, but going kamikaze on her ass is a bit much.

At least only he was killed.

At least only he was killed.

Agreed but it certainly wasn't for lack of trying it would appear.
