JAKARTA - A DHL cargo plane crashed into a house as it was about to land at Vilnius Lithuania airport. The accident killed one person and injured three others on the plane.
The flight was operated by SWIFT airline on behalf of DHL and took off from Leipzig, Germany before the plane crashed at around 03.30 local time, Monday, November 25, a spokesman for the National Crisis Management Center said. Everyone at home is confirmed.
Authorities said there were no signs of an explosion preceding the accident.
"Currently we don't have any data on an explosion," he said.
Airport spokesman said the plane was a Boeing 737-400.
Meanwhile, police said 12 people were evacuated from the house that was hit by a plane.
The plane touched the ground and skidded at least 100 meters (110 yards) before hitting a building. The cause of the accident is being investigated.
Firefighters were seen at 05.30 GMT pouring water into the building about 1.3 km north of the airport runway.
The presence of large numbers of police and ambulances was seen nearby and several nearby main roads were closed.
Currently, Germany is investigating several fires caused by incendiary devices hidden in parcels in warehouses in Leipzig earlier this year, the country's attorney general said in October.
British anti-terrorism police immediately said they were investigating a warehouse fire in July, caused by a burning package, and were working with other European law enforcement agencies to see if it had anything to do with similar incidents elsewhere.
