A small Cessna aircraft crashed in a San Diego military neighborhood Thursday morning setting several homes and vehicles on fire with multiple deaths reported.

Back at the Navy Exchange, Liberty Military Housing workers walked through the parking lot, passing out food and doughnuts to evacuated families. The agency, which manages the Murphy Canyon properties, was working to help more than three dozen families find temporary housing.

In the stillness of night, a quiet, tree-lined street in a San Diego neighborhood was plunged into chaos when a plane clipped a power line and crashed – turning cars into fireballs and sending residents fleeing in a haze of smoke and confusion.
