A small plane crashed Thursday morning into a San Diego neighborhood amid foggy weather, spewing jet fuel and setting over a dozen homes on fire, according to news reports.
The Federal Aviation Administration says the Cessna 550 aircraft crashed in the Murphy Canyon neighborhood, near the Montgomery-Gibbs Executive Airport.
“We have jet fuel all over the place,” Assistant Fire Department Chief Dan Eddy said during a news conference, according to the Associated Press. “Our main goal is to search all these homes and get everybody out right now.”
