Small plane crashes in South Carolina neighbourhood in fog
A small plane crashed into a neighbourhood in dense fog and set a home on fire near an airport in South Carolina’s capital city, authorities said.
A woman inside the home apparently escaped injury from the crash on Wednesday, although Columbia Fire Chief Aubrey Jenkins said the woman may have been scratched by her cats as she tried to get them to safety.
There was no immediate word on the fate of people in the plane.
The single-engine Beechcraft BE-33 crashed just before 11 am (local time), about a mile from the Jim HamiltonL.B. Owens Airport, which handles non-commercial airplanes in Columbia, authorities said.
