At least two people are dead and eight others were injured after a small plane crashed into the San Diego military housing neighborhood of Murphy Canyon early Thursday morning. At a news conference, San Diego Assistant Fire Chief Dan Eddy said they are still trying to confirm if the fatalities were people on board the plane.

San Diego officials said at least two people are dead after the plane crashed in a neighborhood, causing multiple residences and cars to catch fire.

Dozens of military families were evacuated early Thursday after a Cessna 550 jet crashed into their neighborhood, damaging homes and vehicles. At least three people on the privately-owned jet were killed, according to the Associated Press. Six were on board.
