Two people were killed and and another sustained injuries after a small airplane crashed through the roof of a home in northwestern Oregon on Tuesday night, authorities said.
The crash happened at around 7 p.m. local time, when multiple witnesses called 911 to report seeing the small plane "spiraling toward the ground" and eventually crashing in Newberg, which is about 25 miles from Portland, Tualatin Valley Fire and Rescue wrote in a Facebook post.
Firefighters arrived at the scene and found the small plane crashed through the roof of a residential home, with a portion of the plane located inside the home itself and the rest in the backyard, according to the fire and rescue service. Two passengers on the plane were killed and one passenger was injuried.
