VANCOUVER, British Columbia - A small plane crashed into an apartment building near the Vancouver International Airport Friday.
Witnesses told local media the twin-engine plane struck the eighth and ninth floors of the building, but no smoke or fire was evident in television pictures from the scene.
There were no details on deaths or injuries. A police spokesman told local media it was believed there were two people onboard the aircraft.
