Small Plane Crashes in Pennsylvania Retirement Community Parking Lot

All five passengers survived the fiery crash, which damaged multiple vehicles but caused no injuries on the ground.

A Beechcraft Bonanza carrying five people crashed shortly after takeoff from Lancaster Airport on Sunday afternoon in Manheim Township, Pennsylvania.
The pilot had reported an 'open door' issue and requested to return to the airport before the crash occurred around 3:18 p.m. local time.
The plane narrowly missed nearby buildings and landed in the parking lot of Brethren Village, a retirement community, damaging about a dozen vehicles.
All five passengers were injured and transported to local hospitals, with three requiring treatment at a burn center; no injuries were reported among residents or bystanders.
The FAA and NTSB are investigating the crash, with Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro confirming state police are assisting local first responders.
