Witnesses told the King County Sheriff's Office that the plane’s propeller "sputtered" and then stopped in the air before rolling over and crashing into the garage. The crash caused a small fuel leak.
The plane, a Maule M-5, was registered to Jay Uusitalo, 45, of Redmond.
The cause of the crash is unknown and the FAA and NTSB are investigating the incident.
