Officials from ExecuFlight, the company that leased the aircraft, tell us there were nine people aboard the plane, a pilot, copilot and seven passengers.
The FAA says a Hawker H25 twin-engine business jet left Dayton and was on approach to Akron Fulton International Airport just before 3 p.m.

Looks like it crashed about 3 miles out from the end of the runway, according to Google Maps. NY Times reports crash near the intersection of Mogadore and Skelton Roads.

The aircraft flew from Cincinnati-Lunken KLUK to Dayton-Wright Brothers KMGY Tuesday AM. (Wright Brothers field was formerly known as Montgomery County airport, hence its KMGY id).
The accident flight departed KMGY about 1930Z. It did not operate through Wright-Patterson AFB; that report was local media confusion.

MDA's for the non precision approaches into RWY25 area round 1500'-ish with an airport elevation of 1067'.
With an overcast of 600'-800' that is a non-precision approach to minimums in my book.
Statistically the highest chance of CFIT......

A surveillance video caught the final seconds of the flight.
Surveillance video shows moment plane crashed into Ohio apartment complex; 9 dead | Q13 FOX News
There's only about 3 seconds from when the aircraft comes into the frame to when it impacts the ground, but it appears to be descending rapidly. From the angle and the wing position, there's no doubt that it is in a steep bank.
