Small Plane Crashes Into Trees, Gets Stuck, Near NJ Airport
A small plane has crashed into some trees near a New Jersey airport.
A spokeswoman for Hillsborough Township said a report of the downed plane with only the pilot aboard came in around noon Tuesday. The plane had departed from nearby Central Jersey Regional Airport, the spokeswoman said, but appeared to have crashed into some trees in the nearby municipality of Manville.
Emergency correspondence indicated there was a fuel leak -- and that the plane was stuck at least 70 feet in the air. Chopper footage shows the small plane stuck in thick woods nearly two hours after the initial crash was reported.
No injuries were reported; a cause of the accident is under investigation. News 4 has reached out to the Federal Aviation Administration for comment.
