Does anyone know where I can get more information on
the Cessna that crashed next to a home in Forsyth County
Georgia today?

I saw a small segment on CNN, but I haven't been able
to get any details.

If you look on AJC.com (registration required), you can find an article on
the crash. The facts are that a C-150 with two aboard crashed shortly after
takeoff from Mathis Field, killing both occupants. The aircraft crashed in
someone's yard, and the empennage came to rest against the outside wall of a
home, with little or no damage to the structure. FYI, Mathis is a short,
narrow, privately owned field in Forsyth county. It was a very windy/gusty
day here in the Atlanta area, and that may (or may not) have contributed to
the accident. Witnesses reported that the C-150 clipped several trees
before crashing.
