Two people were killed when a small plane plummeted to the ground near a suburban Philadelphia airport Sunday afternoon, police said.
The plane — a piper — crashed into a wooded area near Saunders Lane and Andrews Drive in West Goshen, Chester County killing both people on board around 1:45 p.m., officials confirmed.
It had taken off a short time earlier from the Brandywine Airport, which is roughly two miles from the crash site, police said.
Witnesses on the ground heard the plane’s engine stuttering moments after it was in the air and then the plane crashed and burst into flames, investigators said.
Fire crews rushed to the scene and extinguished the blaze.
The identities of the victims have not been released and it’s unknown at this time what caused the plane to crash.
Local authorities are investigating and the National Transportation and Safety Board is expected to take part in the probe.
