Portland: A major accident has happened in Portland, America. A small plane collided with several houses in the eastern part of Portland on Saturday morning. Many houses also caught fire due to the collision of the plane. Three people have died in this accident. Giving information, officials said that there were two people on board the plane and at least one resident is missing. A video after the incident has also surfaced, in which the house is seen on fire, while black smoke is seen coming out of the surrounding houses.
Four houses caught fire
Gresham Fire Chief Scott Lewis said the fire spread to at least four homes, displacing six families. He said two people were treated at the scene but did not say how they were injured or how severe their injuries were. The Federal Aviation Administration identified the plane as a twin-engine Cessna 421C. It said the plane crashed about 10:30 a.m. near Troutdale Airport, about 30 minutes east of Portland.
The plane broke into several parts
According to the Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office, the plane broke a pole and power lines after falling down, causing a fire in a nearby field. The plane broke into several parts after hitting houses in the residential area of Fairview city. About 10,000 people live in this area. Lewis said that the first phone call about the fire was made by the employees of the ‘control tower’ of Troutdale Airport, who saw a thick cloud of smoke rising, but initial reports suggest that “no call was received regarding the emergency” before the plane crashed. The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating the accident. (Input – Agency)
