AKRON, Ohio (AP) — Two people inside a small plane were found
dead Thursday after it crashed into a house in Ohio and exploded
into flames, the Akron Fire Department said.
There were no immediate reports of injuries inside the home
after the crash shortly before 4 p.m., the department said in a
news release. The home and another house had to be evacuated.
The Federal Aviation Administration said in an email the plane
was a Piper PA-28.
Video circulating on X appeared to show a large plume of thick
black smoke rising above a residential neighborhood after the
crash. The aircraft itself is not visible in the footage, but
flames can be seen at the base of the smoke as it rises into the
sky above nearby homes.
