Plane Crash in São Paulo Claims Lives and Injures Passersby

Two people have died following a plane crash into vehicles on a busy road in São Paulo, Brazil. According to a spokesperson for the fire department, the bodies of the victims were found in the wreckage of a twin-engine Beech F90 King Air that went down on Marques de São Vicente Avenue in the Barra Funda neighborhood around 7:20 AM local time.
Images and video from the scene depict a bus engulfed in flames as a result of the crash. Reports from CNN Brasil indicate that a motorcyclist and a female bus passenger were injured by debris and have been transported to the hospital. Fortunately, the other passengers on the bus escaped without serious harm, though four individuals sustained minor injuries.
The aircraft had reportedly taken off from Campo de Marte Airport and was en route to Porto Alegre in the southern state of Rio Grande do Sul when it lost contact with the control tower shortly after departure. Investigations into the cause of the crash are ongoing.
