Bizjet Crash at Teterboro, New Jersey

Reports of a crash near TEB, some say it is a Lear 35.

A small plane crashed into a neighborhood in Carlstadt, New Jersey, while attempting to land at Teterboro Airport on Monday afternoon, according to the FAA.

Police said multiple buildings were on fire after the crash, and black smoke was seen rising above the crash site.

The FAA said the Learjet 35 was approaching Runway 1 at the airport at 3:30 p.m. when it went down in a residential area about 1/4 mile from the airport.

The flight departed from Philadelphia International Airport.

"There's nothing really left of the plane at all - you just see the two engines that are burnt up and stuff," one witness said.
