UK - 5 feared dead after plane hits house


Five people are feared dead after a plane crashed into a residential area in Kent on Sunday afternoon. The Cessna Citation, an eight seater aircraft, came down shortly after 15:00 BST [14:00 GMT] near to Farnborough, Kent. Residents in the area say they saw the aircraft appear to circle before crashing into houses in Broadwater Gardens. Sky News have been running some pictures sent in by viewers showing flames issuing from the roofs of residential properties in the street. Large amounts of smoke could also be seen filling the sky above the crash site. It is not known if anyone was in the house which the aircraft hit. The BBC and CNN have so far shown little coverage on this Breaking News story.
