Small plane crashes on suburban Chicago street, killing 2 - CNN.com:


MUNSTER, Indiana (AP) -- A small plane crashed on a city street Friday evening in suburban Chicago, killing two people who were on the plane, authorities said.

There were no initial reports of any injuries on the ground, said Elizabeth Isham Cory, a spokeswoman for the Federal Aviation Administration.

It did not appear that the plane hit any people, cars or buildings.

The crash left much of the twin-engine Beechcraft Baron's wreckage on four-lane Calumet Avenue.

The crash site is near the state line and within a mile of the Lansing Municipal Airport in Lansing, Illinois.

Cory said she did not immediately have information about the plane's travel route.
