• 5. Flagstaff woman hurt in plane crash near camp Verde / Rowan was a deputy

  A Flagstaff woman was injured critically Sunday when a small plane piloted by her husband crashed south of Camp Verde, authorities said.

  Dispatcher Terry North of the Yavapai County Sheriff's Office identified the pilot as Richard Trebowski, 51, and the two passengers as Patricia A. Trebowski, 40, and Rebecca Lynn Stutz, 19.

  Mrs. Trebowski was flown by helicopter to Flagstaff Hospital, where she was in critical condition Sunday evening.

  She was thrown from the plane when it crashed, Sgt. Frank Valentine said.

  Valentine said Trebowski, who works at a Flagstaff restaurant, and Ms. Stutz were treated at Marcus J. Lawrence Memorial Hospital in Cottonwood and released.

  Deputy Rowan Ellsworth said the 1979 Cessna 182, owned by Northland Aviation in Flagstaff, hit big catclaw bushes while landing at about noon on a strip at the Camp Verde Fish Farm, a hatchery eight miles south of Camp Verde and near Verde Lake.

  Ellsworth said the plane skidded along the ground on its nose for about 30 feet before its nose gear broke off. The plane caught on a strut and flipped.

  Ellsworth said the pilot "had been there (at the fish farm) Friday, walking along the strip with the owner. They were talking about whether he could land there. He said he could.

  "He just came in a little bit too low."

  MESA — A four-engine C-54 crashed Tuesday while trying to take off from Falcon Field. Its two occupants and a driver of a pickup truck it hit were injured.

  Witnesses said the 34-year-old plane ran off the end of the runway, hopped over an embankment and struck the truck before breaking apart in an orange grove across Greenfield Road.

  Pilot Lowell Rogers, 35, of Las Vegas, suffered a broken leg, but was able to get free of the wreckage. Copilot Mike Lefebvre, 21, of 928 S. Terrace, Tempe, was pinned inside for about 40 minutes. He suffered two broken legs, according to Mesa police.

  Both were listed in stable condition at Mesa Lutheran Hospital late Tuesday after surgery.

  William Bryan Mully, 20, of 206 N. Standage, Mesa, the truck driver, was treated at Mesa Lutheran for cuts and was released.

  Mesa Police Detective Rowan Ellsworth said the plane was used for agricultural spraying by Globe Air of Mesa and Biegerk Aviation, a Nebraska company.

  He said both crewmen were certified to fly C-54s, but neither had flown that plane before.

  "They were on their way to sort of an orientation flight," Ellsworth said. "The plane came over the bank and there was the pickup. The truck caught the right inboard propeller — the wings detached from the plane and the fuselage continued into the trees."

  "Mobil-home park developer is target of forgery probe"
  Inquiry focuses on attempt to get loan from Mesa bank
  By Brent Whiting, Republic Staff

  The developer of a destitute Mesa mobile-home park is under investigation by Mesa police for alleged forgery and submitting false financial statements to a bank, it was disclosed Thursday.

  The probe centers upon H. Keith Smith, developer of the Sundance Resort, 4700 E. Main, according to documents filed in Maricopa County Superior Court.

  The documents show that Deanna Cardiff, 37, of 301 N. 61st Place, Mesa, has implicated Smith in a fraudulent scheme to obtain a $100,000 loan from Mission Bank, 5555 E. Main, Mesa.

  Smith, 53, of 7832 Via Costa, Scottsdale, could not be reached for comment. Robert Houser, one of his attorneys, said he could not comment on the documents because he hasn't seen them.

  The court documents consist of two search warrants issued Jan. 30 by Judge Michael Bradford allowing Mesa police to seize financial statements filed with the bank to secure the $100,000 loan.

  The statements were filed in the name of Miss Cardiff and Don R. Christopher, both of whom are trustees for Sundance Resort, court papers show.

  Miss Cardiff has told police that the financial statement in her name is fraudulent and Smith helped her to prepare it, court papers show.

  She also has reported that the statement filed in Christopher's name is false and that Smith forged Christopher's signature on the document, the papers show.

  Rowan Ellsworth, a Mesa police detective, told Bradford that Miss Cardiff's reliability is evidenced by her free admission to self-incriminating evidence. He said Miss Cardiff has openly assisted police in their investigation.

  According to court papers, the loan was issued to Real Property Management Co., a company set up by Smith to develop Sundance Resort.

  Smith served as general manager of Real Property Management and the firm has defaulted on the loan, the papers show.

  Miss Cardiff told police that she prepared a financial statement showing a net worth of $257,600, court papers show. She said Smith altered the document to reflect a net worth of $1,335,097, according to the papers.

  "Never submit a financial statement showing a net worth less than $1 million," Miss Cardiff said she was told by Smith, the papers show.

• 8. 3 plead innocense in theft of pottery from Arizona ruins / Rowan a probation officer

  A reserve Yavapai County deputy sheriff, a former deputy and an Indian-jewelry dealer pleaded innocent Wednesday to charges that they stole pottery from an archaeological site near Flagstaff.

  The three, indicted Oct. 9 by a federal grand jury in Phoenix, are among the first in the nation to be prosecuted under a tough new federal law intended to scare diggers away from ruins, including the thousands of sites in Arizona.

  The innocent pleas were entered before U.S. Magistrate Michael Mignella by Rowan J. Ellsworth, 37, of Camp Verde, a former Yavapai County deputy sheriff who now is a probation officer for the Camp Verde Yavapai-Apache Indian Community; Harry J. King, 41, of Camp Verde, a reserve deputy for the Yavapai County Sheriff's Office; and Carol L. Steen, 36, of Rimrock, a self-employed Indian jeweler.

  Their trial is scheduled to begin Dec. 10 in Prescott before U.S. District Judge Charles L. Hardy. They remain free on their own recognizance.

  According to the indictment, the three excavated and removed ruins from the Coconino National Forest about 15 miles east of Flagstaff in November 1982.

  Ellsworth, contacted at his home, declined comment. King and Steen could not be reached.

  They face penalties of up to $20,000 each plus two years in prison under the federal Archaeological Resource Protection Act. Although the act was approved by Congress in 1979, its full effect only now is emerging.

  That's because regulations needed to give the law its clout were not enacted until January 1984, said Sherry P. Herrgott, the assistant U.S. attorney handling the case.

  The regulations tell archaeologists how to determine whether the damage at a site should be considered a felony. For the damage to be considered serious enough to justify felony charges, archaeologists must certify that properly excavating an identical site would cost more than $5,000.

  Herrgott, who instructs federal officials from across the country on how to use the law, said that Arizona "probably is more active than any district in the country in implementing this law."

  Last year, an Arizona resident became the first in the nation to forfeit a vehicle used to steal artifacts, as authorities used a provision allowing them to seize vehicles used in commission of the crimes.

  In another case, authorities seized $40,000 in pottery from the home of a person ordered to make restitution.

  Another case is pending in U.S. District Court in Phoenix against three others indicted on charges of destroying ruins.

  Arraignment is set for next Wednesday for brothers Dale Roy Plumb, 21, and David Press Plumb, 25, both of Show Low, and Patrick Ken Reidhead, 24, of Snowflake. They are accused of stealing artifacts from the Cherry Site, a prehistoric settlement on Bureau of Land Management land near Show Low, in March.
