Monterey County officials alerted the Coast Guard’s Monterey station at 10:55 p.m. Saturday that a twin-engine Beechcraft with three people aboard had crashed about 200 to 300 yards offshore, near the historic Point Pinos Lighthouse in Pacific Grove, the Coast Guard said in a news release Sunday.

The United States Coast Guard said three people were inside a plane that crashed in Monterey County Saturday evening. Crews found two people unresponsive, and a search for the third is ongoing, the Coast Guard said.

A search is underway for at least three people after a twin-engine plane crashed late Saturday night off the coast of Monterey, authorities said.
