A small plane crashed into a residential area of southern California in the middle of the night, police said on Thursday, smashing into houses and setting multiple cars ablaze.
TV footage showed rows of cars burned to blackened shells and at least one house suffering major destruction in the San Diego neighborhood of low-rise homes.
The Federal Aviation Authority said a Cessna 550 crashed at around 3:45 am local time. The neighborhood is close to the Montgomery-Gibbs Executive Airport.
The San Diego Police Department said it was “responding to a plane crash” and evacuated three streets, while advising the public to call authorities if coming across debris or “smell jet fuel.”
The Cessna airplane left a “gigantic debris field” and damaged multiple homes and parked cars, ABC News quoted the San Diego assistant fire chief as saying.
