This is the chilling video from yesterday’s (Sunday) plane crash in a Detroit neighborhood that shows an injured 17-year-old boy rolling out of the plane to safety. According to news reports, just prior to the teenager escaping a neighbor used an ax to open up the plane’s door. Two others on the Cessna 210 died. The plane was coming from Arkansas.
Christina Hall & Bill Laitner, Detroit Free Press:
Police said a 54-year-old man and a 48-year-old woman were killed. A 17-year-old male is in critical condition at Detroit Receiving Hospital.
With the crowd yelling at them that the plane was about to explode, (Larry) Whitfield said he and the other man used the ax to break out the window and then open the plane’s door.
At one point, one passenger got out and emergency rescue personnel began working on him, Whitfield said, but the others could not escape.
