From a music exec to photographer to martial artist, more is being learned about the lives lost in the early morning crash that took six lives.
The San Diego County Medical Examiner’s Office identified two more people who died after a small plane crashed in the Murphy Canyon neighborhood early Thursday morning.
In the stillness of night, a quiet, tree-lined street in a San Diego neighborhood was plunged into chaos when a plane clipped a power line and crashed – turning cars into fireballs and sending residents fleeing in a haze of smoke and confusion.
The 3:45 a.m. crash wreaked havoc across several blocks of federal housing, leaving smashed cars and a trail of jet fuel burning in the street. More than 10 houses were badly damaged from debris, sending shocked families running from the smoke and flames.
