Phoenix fire crews responded to the scene of a plane crash that took place near Central Avenue and Deer Valley Road on Saturday. Crews arrived to find the aircraft had hit the carport of a commercial building near Deer Valley Airport.
Phoenix Fire Captain Daniel “DJ” Lee says the pilot managed to self-extricate and had minor injuries.
“The pilot was by himself in there. No one else was with him, no injuries, it never caught fire, it never spilled gas, never leaked gas. It was just — pretty much just a plane that did not land on the runway.”
The cause of the crash is still under investigation by the Phoenix Police Department.
