STORYLINE:
The music agency Sound Talent Group said Thursday that three of its employees died on the private plane that crashed into a San Diego neighborhood.
The private jet crashed early Thursday into a neighborhood of U.S. Navy-owned housing in San Diego during foggy weather, igniting at least one home and numerous vehicles parked on the street.
The Federal Aviation Administration says the dead include Dave Shapiro, the agency’s co-founder. Shapiro is listed as the owner of the plane and has a pilot’s license.
Sound Talent Group has represented artists including Hanson, Sum 41 and Vanessa Carlton. The agency didn’t share the names of the other two employees who died.
The National Transportation Safety Board now says the total number of fatalities is unknown, but the plane could hold as many as 10 people.
Several people were injured while trying to flee as flames raced down a single street after the crash just before 4 a.m. in the Murphy Canyon, the largest neighborhood of Navy-owned housing in the country. Others were treated for smoke inhalation, authorities said.
At least one home was destroyed with its front heavily burned and its roof partially collapsed. About 10 others suffered damage at the site where half a dozen vehicles were melted and scorched into burned shells.
At least 100 residents were evacuated, police said, with surrounding blocks cordoned off with yellow police tape and checkpoints.
