An Investigation is Underway in Chattanooga Following a Plane Crash that Injures Two

An investigation is underway after two people are injured in a plane crash.

The Chattanooga Fire Department says the two suffered minor injuries yesterday (Tuesday) afternoon when their plane crashed on a busy road during rush hour.

Officials say the plane’s engine went out and that it crashed about a half-mile away from the nearby airport runway.

When crews arrived on the scene, one person was already out of the plane, and the other person was trying to get himself out but was trapped. CFD cut pieces of metal and removed a portion of the plane to free him from the wreckage. Additionally, crews had to stop a small fuel leak.

The FAA and NTSB are going to investigate the crash.
