Airplane Crash In Valley

A small airplane has crashed in the Southeast part of the Valley.
Per KXNT news, a plane took off from the Henderson Airport and the pilot told the control tower that it had trouble maintaining elevation. The plane came down in populated area, by some houses. Neighbors tried to rescue the people on board and put out the fire with garden hoses. At this time, there is one person dead and 3 injured.
From the Las Vegas Sun: "Metro Police Lt. Joe Ojeda, with the police air support search and rescue team, said the four-seater Piper aircraft took off from Henderson Executive Airport. After what started as a routine takeoff, the plane lost power, he said.
"They went down very quickly," Ojeda said.
The plane appeared to have been attempting to land on the street, Ojeda said.
The passengers were two men and two women in their late 30s to mid 40s, he said. One of the male passengers was taken to St. Rose Dominican Hospitals Siena Campus, where he died. The other passengers had "extensive injuries" and burns, Ojeda said. No one on the ground was injured."
