Indications are that it was an accident- the plane had just taken off from an airport less than a mile away, flight plan was filed. Radio news says there were two occupants, no word on their condition, nobody in the building was hurt.

AP posted it at 12:53 p.m. Others, too, I’m sure.

Have patience.

trailing smoke and rolled moments before

Engine fire in flight? Nasty scenario...smoke/flames in cockpit...can't see to keep level...perhaps cant breath...

Prayers up.

I love the quote:”There is also a fuel spill to deal with, so that’s a concern,” Phillips said

Who cares about the people we may have a spill OH NO
