HOUSTON (AP) – Three people were killed Thursday after a small plane crashed into a car in a parking lot near a Houston airport, fire officials said.
Houston Fire Department spokesman Jay Evans said the plane crashed shortly after 1 p.m. into a car that was parked at a hardware store near Hobby Airport in the southeastern part of the city.
Fire Capt. Ruy Lozano said officials believe the three people killed in the accident were on the plane. No one was in the parked car that was hit by the plane, he said.
“It didn’t strike the building. No fire. No fuel spill,” Lozano said.
Evans said no other injuries were reported.
