From reporting by The New York Times:
A small jet crashed into a residential San Diego neighborhood early Thursday morning, killing the people on board and destroying several homes, officials said.
Dan Eddy, San Diego’s assistant fire chief, told a news conference that there had been multiple fatalities, all among people on the plane. The number of people aboard was not immediately known.
The aircraft, a Cessna 550, which Mr. Eddy said carries up to 10 people, crashed in Murphy Canyon near the Tierrasanta neighborhood just before 4 a.m. Multiple homes caught on fire and were destroyed, the San Diego Police Department said.
This is a developing story and will be updated as new information is reported.
