How'd you like to wake up to a Cessna in your front yard?

A rental plane from a local flight school was on its way back from upstate, but couldn't find the runway due to the fog. Sent to three other airports but still couldn't find the runways so ran out of gas.

Amazingly, no one was hurt, but power was out for miles around.
