One individual was property at the time but that lady was capable to escape devoid of critical injuries. 

Columbia Fireplace Chief Aubrey Jenkins mentioned it appeared the airplane strike some trees, skidded across the roof producing harm, and then went into the property. Jenkins did not know what sort of plane it was, but claimed it was “modest” and that it was “fairly mangled up.”
