Small aircraft plummets into Georgia neighborhood, leaves 3 injured

A late-night training flight ended in chaos when a small plane plummeted into the front yard of a suburban residence near Atlanta over the weekend.

The incident in Brookhaven, Georgia, sent all three passengers onboard to the hospital shortly after midnight on Saturday, according to officials. 

Photos of the incident show the mangled wreckage lodged in a tree, with fragments dangling in branches and electrical cables. 

FOX 5 Atlanta reported a brief power outage in the neighborhood. Fortunately, police informed Fox News Digital on Sunday that there were no damages to homes and no injuries to individuals on the ground.

DeKalb County Fire Department and the DeKalb American Medical Response team also responded to the scene, according to the police.

The NTSB will be coordinating with the Federal Aviation Administration to conduct an investigation into the crash.

The plane and all the debris were removed from the yard by early Saturday afternoon, police said.
