00:00Witnesses recounted the details of an airplane crash that occurred in the vicinity of a shopping
00:10mall in Philadelphia on Friday night.
00:13A small plane carrying at least two people crashed, resulting in multiple casualties
00:18on the ground, federal officials and local media reported.
00:22The Federal Aviation Administration said the crash took place near the Roosevelt Mall in
00:26northeast Philadelphia.
00:28And it was a big ball of fire just flew into the sky and the whole gas station started
00:33shaking and like little debris and stuff was flying over there.
00:36So I tried to, like, you know, keep the doors shut and I let customers out until the debris
00:40was gone. So nobody got hurt or anything.
00:42Once that once I seen a big ball of fire, I came outside, I walked straight down there,
00:47started seeing a bunch of like plain pieces.
00:49And it's like you like honestly like a human foot or something.
00:54It was in a shoe still just on the side of the side of the street.
00:57You just hear everybody say, get down, get down, get down.
01:00And when everybody say get down, we all get down.
01:03But I just see the plane is getting lower and lower and lower.
01:06It nipped the house when it nipped the house and hit a couple of cars boom into the plaza
01:12and to the Dunkin Donuts everywhere.
01:14I've never seen nothing like that a day in my life.
01:17I have never seen nothing like that.
01:19You got dead bodies over there, cars burnt up as I showed you from the gym.
01:24At least one house and multiple cars were on fire.
01:27It is said that the weather was cold and rainy with low visibility at the time of the crash.
01:32Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said there were reportedly six people on board.
