A small plane crashed Sunday night at a local airport in the U.S. state of Texas, killing two people on board, local media reported. Dozens of firefighters rushed to David Wayne Hooks Memorial Airport in Houston's north suburb of Spring after they received emergency call at around 7:15 p.m. (0115 GMT Monday), local TV ABC13 reported. According to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the pilot of the single-engine Cessna 152 had been in the traffic pattern performing touch-and-go landings when engine problems were reported. The report said the pilot was returning to the runway when the plane clipped one hangar, then crashed into another hangar. One person in the plane died at the scene. Another one was rushed to an area hospital where he later died, officials said. The victims were identified as a flying instructor and a student. The victim that died at the scene was the student, according to the report. Harris County Sheriff's Office said it took a moment before emergency crews could safely approach the wreckage due to the large amount of fuel that spilled and the blaze it caused. The National Transportation Safety Board had been notified and would reportedly take the lead in the investigation. FAA investigators were dispatched to the crash site as well.
