A small plane crashed near a road in Nashville, Tennessee, not far from the airport it was trying to land at. Five people on the plane died.
The pilot called John C. for help right away. The plane will arrive at Tune Airport at 7:40 in the evening. On Monday, there was a problem with the engine and the plane had to make an emergency landing, according to Don Aaron, a spokesperson for the Metro Nashville Police Department. A little while later, the pilot called on the radio and said that the plane wouldn’t make it to the airport.
The airplane caught on fire when it crashed in a grassy area near the highway and behind a Costco on the west side of the city. The accident happened 3 miles south of the small airport.
“Everyone on the ship seems to have died,” Aaron said.
On Tuesday, the police announced on the social media site X that five people had passed away. The Federal Aviation Administration was there and the National Transportation Safety Board will come on Tuesday.
Officials were also trying to find out where the plane came from.
No one got hurt in the car crash on the highway, according to Kendra Loney from the Nashville Fire Department. Officials said no cars or buildings were damaged.
