A small plane just crashed here near my house.

The crash site is less than 1 mile from here. Eight people are dead. Everything lit up and there was a loud explosion. The plane crashed into a busy street, exactly where a friend of mine lives.

More details to come ... if you guys are interested ...
 
They backed up and don't know how many are dead ... maybe more than eight. Seems that some houses are on fire ... and I don't have the phone number of my friend's house ... NOW I'm worried 🙁
 
no can do ... I'm alone here, no car, and the streets are flooded due to heavy rain here in the last hours, so a cab won't do either 🙁
 
Well, it seems that the plane fell down onto some rowhouses, and my friend doensn't live in a rowhouse, so that's a relief.

Unfortunately, two people are confirmed dead, six are badly injured, and another number are lightly injured. Still, I feel sad for those involved in this accident. 🙁
 
Just a last update:

Eight people on the plane are confirmed dead. 🙁
On ground, people are injured, but there are no reports of deaths.
Fire has burnt down those houses, but everything is under control.
It has been a very stormy night here ... heavy rain and a lot of wind. Something was bound to happen ...
I couldn't get in touch with my friend ... and I'll probably only see her monday. Well, at least I think all is ok with her.


Sad night indeed ...
 
Damn kuk that is terrible, I'm sorry to hear that. 🙁

I'm glad you and your friend are alright though.

We are a nation of laws. We should sue gravity; not for breach of law 😉 , but for careless disregard of human life.

Or Bernoulli, for unprincipled behavior.

Condolences, nonetheless, for the families of the unfortunate victims. Premature non-existance is proof positive that the Universe is a harsh mistress.

in usa? oooh that not good. . . . . well, i guess your pc was a little too loud eh? or well thats the last time i run it without a case. . . just a little rf humor . . . but really what area of the us?
 
Well, answering some questions:

Cybordolphin: It was a small plane, a "Turbo Comander" if you are into planes. There must have been an explosion while in the air, since witnesses reported that a huge ball of fire came from the sky. A man that lived in an apartment told radio reporters that the plane missed the building by a few hundred feet; it would have been an even worse tragedy if the plane fell onto the apartment complex. Luckly no one on ground was injured.

ArkAoss: No it wasn't in the USA ... it was here in Brazil. And, hummm ... I didn't understand your joke there 😉
