U.S. Bank executive Terrance “Terry” Dolan, 63, of Edina, was officially identified as the pilot flying the small plane that crashed into a Brooklyn Park house last weekend, the Hennepin County medical examiner’s office announced Tuesday.
The day after the crash, U.S. Bank had said the Minneapolis-based company believed that Dolan, its vice chair and chief administrative officer, had been piloting the plane, a single-engine Socata TBM7.
The crash occurred about 12:20 p.m. Saturday near 109th Avenue North and Noble Parkway. One of the two occupants of the house was home at the time and was able to escape without injury. Nobody else was killed or injured besides Dolan. The house was destroyed by the plane nose-diving into the roof and the subsequent fire.
One neighboring home suffered damage to its siding and some homes had debris from the crash in their yards, authorities said.
Dolan was flying back to Minnesota from Naples, Fla. After a stop in Des Moines, Iowa, he departed for the Anoka County-Blaine Airport, which is a few miles from the crash site.
The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating the cause of the crash.
