Four people were killed as their plane crashed, leaving a trail of fiery wreckage on a suburban street near El Cajon, the FAA announced Tuesday.
The San Diego Sheriff’s Department reported that the Learjet 35A crashed shortly after 7 p.m. in the Bostonia area of unincorporated El Cajon as it was approaching Gillespie Field.

Accordingly, one home was damaged and the firefighters did not find any survivors at the plane crash scene. However, no injuries or fatalities were reported from people on the ground.
On their part, neighbors described what looked like a bright light and then a massive explosion. One resident stated that flames reached so high in the air, it looked like a "bright fireball."
In response, the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) has sent three investigators to look into the cause of the crash.
The NTSB's final report on the crash, "including the probable cause and any contributing factors, is expected to be completed in 12 to 24 months," officials said.
