Conflicting reports on whether the plane carried 2 or 6 people (including a patient).

Roosevelt Blvd and Cottman Ave, approximately where the crash occurred, is a working-class neighborhood about 3 miles south of Northeast Philadelphia airport, which is used mostly for general aviation (no scheduled flights), and in line with its runway 24.

There's a midsized shopping mall there, but also many single- and two-family row houses in the immediate vicinity, at least several of which are on fire.
