San Diego Plane Crash Kills Several, Displaces Dozens

News summary

A private Cessna jet crashed into San Diego's Murphy Canyon military housing neighborhood early Thursday morning, killing several people on board but causing no reported injuries among residents on the ground. The crash, during foggy weather, sparked fires that damaged or destroyed about 10-15 homes and multiple vehicles, displacing around 100 people. The jet, owned by an Alaskan corporation, originated from Teterboro Airport in New Jersey with a refueling stop in Wichita, Kansas, before its attempted landing at Montgomery-Gibbs Executive Airport. Authorities are still determining the exact number of fatalities and are investigating whether the plane struck a power line before impact. Over 50 officers and fire crews responded promptly, evacuating residents and fighting fires fueled by jet fuel. The National Transportation Safety Board is leading the investigation, and local officials have pledged support for affected military families.
