One report says:
We work just around the corner. A plane flying too low out of SLO airport struck power lines, trees and crashed into the side of the Promega building at the corner of Granada and Sueldo streets. The plane hit the front of a FedEx truck that was delivering to the building. The driver was fine, but there were no survivors from the plane. The corner of the building caught fire, although no-one inside seems to be hurt. Hitting the power lines took out power for several blocks around. Police and Firefighters were on the scene in minutes, and evacuated the surrounding area.

I wonder what's going on lately that there are accidents involving Cessna 337?

Nagging fate or any other factor?

I believe the plane is N337LJ P337H model with Riley inter coolers and Air Cond. yeah, seems a rash of crashes! Pilot reported a problem but don't know the nature of the problem.
