All three passengers inside the plane were killed, firefighters said. “No fire. No fuel spill”, Lozano said. No other injuries were reported. From SkyEye aerials, it appears the plane narrowly missed a propane tank in the parking lot.
Nicole said as she passed the scene, she could see a body inside the plane.
According to Federal Aviation Administration registration records, the plane is a 2012 Cirrus fixed wing, single-engine plane.
It was not immediately clear how many of those dead were in the plane or on the ground. It is registered by Safe Aviation LLC in Moore, Oklahoma.
