Small plane crash lands on a house in US, everyone survives

A pilot, four skydivers and the two occupants of the home have all survived after a small plane crashed onto a house in Phoenix in the US state of Arizona on Sunday. 

Fire officials in the suburb of Gilbert say the people in the plane were all able to eject before the aircraft crashed onto a house. There were two people inside the home; neither of them were injured.

The pilot was taken to hospital to be treated for burns police said, adding that none of the skydivers were hurt.

“Fire under control, working on hot spots,” police said in a tweet. It is thought the plane was carrying skydivers for the Constitution Fair, a yearly event which celebrates the US Constitution.
