At least four people on board a D-C3 plane were burned to death when the private aircraft crashed into an "abandoned" warehouse in a residential area in Las Piñas City on Saturday noon.
Before crashing into the warehouse in Villa Fidela in Elias Aldana village, the plane was already flying low and hit a nearby house.
Rudy Garcia, E. Aldana village chief, said he saw four bodies, three of them men, charred inside the burning plane.
"It appears to be three men, I can't figure out the other person because the body is badly burnt" Garcia said.
Earlier Lloyd Olipano, a concerned resident in Las Piñas, called radio dzBB on Saturday and said at least two houses were damaged when the aircraft fell.
"It happened just now, it just fell, it's still in flames. We can't go near it" Clapano said.
According to him, firefighters have already rushed to the area. Clapano is pleading authorities to shut down the electricity to prevent any fires.
A separate radio report said the D-C3 with body number RTC 550, is still engulfed in flames.
