If I read that right, it said he crashed moments after he took off, and he
realized he was low on fuel. Is that what happened, or did the news mess
it up? Did he really take off without checking the fuel levels?

No, the article says he landed in a field because he was low on fuel. He
subsequently refueled and tried to take off, but hit obstacles and crashed.
