Plane crashes at New Jersey's Teterboro Airport


(Teterboro, N.J.-AP/WTNH, Feb. 2, 2005 8:27 AM) _ A small jet skidded off the runway at Teterboro Airport on Wednesday, crossing a highway during the morning rush hour and slamming into a warehouse.

There was no immediate word on injuries, but pictures showed several ambulances on the scene. Reports say as many as 12 people may have been on the plane.

A traffic helicopter pilot for New York radio station WCBS said the plane went off the runway and broke through a fence. It appeared to strike at least two cars.

Television reports showed smoke billowing from the building and skid marks leading to the crash site.

The jet is a CL-600 Challenger manufactured by Canadair LTD. It is owned by a tax consulting company in Dallas.

Route 46 closed in both directions and broadcast reports said the airport, in the northern New Jersey suburbs, was closed.

This is the same type of plane that crashed in Colorado, killing the son of NBC Sports president Dick Ebersol of Litchfield. Icing is suspected in the cause of that crash.

Perhaps this aircraft was used a tax shelter. Who are the real owners?
