A plane registered to US Bank vice-chair Terry Dolan crashed over the weekend in Brooklyn Park, Minnesota, and his organization fears he was on board.

The Minnesota-based lender said the medical examiner’s office has not been able to confirm whether Dolan was on board at the time of the crash. But “we believe he was”, US Bank said in a statement on Sunday, the day after the crash.

In addition to vice-chair, Dolan became the lender’s chief administration officer in 2023, according to the company’s website.

The National Transportation Safety Board said it was investigating the crash of a Socata TBM 700 airplane on Saturday near Brooklyn Park, Minnesota.

The NTSB said preliminary information indicated only one person was on board. But it does not release the identities of those involved in crashes.

Officials said on Sunday in a statement that the local medical examiner’s office was still working on recovering and confirming the identity of anyone on board the fallen aircraft.

The plane had departed Des Moines international airport in Iowa and was bound for Minnesota’s Anoka County-Blaine airport when the crash occurred, CBS News reported, citing the Federal Aviation Administration.

The plane crashed into a home where two people lived. Only one of the residents was there at the time of the crash and “was able to escape safely”, Brooklyn Park officials said in a statement on Sunday.
