Multiple casualties were reported in New Hampshire after a plane crashed into a residential building.

Flames reaching forty feet in height erupted near Dillant-Hopkins airport in Keene after a single-engine plane plunged into an apartment building.

According to the reports, multiple families live in the building that caught fire after the plane – presumably a Beechcraft Sierra – crashed into the storage area.

While no inhabitants were killed or injured in the incident, reports suggest that everyone on board the doomed plane died in the crash.

The exact number of people on the plane remains unclear.

“There was a plane crash near the Keene Airport into a multifamily building near Hope Chapel,” The City of Keene confirmed in an official statement.

“There were no injuries at the multifamily building. Unfortunately those on the plane have perished. The FAA has been notified. Additional details will be shared as they become available.”

According to the locals who witnessed the crash, the aircraft struck a storage area, sparking huge flames that engulfed the apartment building.

“I just grabbed what I needed to grab to be decent, got outside and looked up. The roof was already in. It already spread all over the roof of the back of the house,” one resident, Scott Gauthier, recalled.

Another told WCVB that the entire building was left shaking in the ordeal.

“It was very scary, I mean, I was sitting in the chair and I heard the big bang and then the house shaking,” Robin Guimond said.

As of this writing, the deadly plane crash remains under investigation and more details are set to emerge soon.
