Small plane with two onboard crashes in suburban Roselle
ROSELLE, Ill. - A small plane with two people onboard crashed in suburban Roselle Wednesday morning.
Around 11:30 a.m., Roselle police and fire departments responded to the crash at Irving Park Road and Williams Street.
The plane that crashed is a single-engine Piper PA-28, according to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
The two people inside the plane were evaluated by paramedics and released at the scene. The plane was reportedly coming from Janesville, Wisconsin.
"I heard a crazy noise. You really couldn't tell what it was and then we walked outside and then there was trash over the front yard and then the plane was in the yard," said Scott Kolarik. "… The way it sounded, it sounded bad."
Irving Park Road is expected to be closed between Rodenburg Road and Roselle Road for several hours.
The cause of the crash is still under investigation by the FAA and the DuPage County Sheriff's Department.
