A light aircraft carrying six people crashed into a vehicle on a highway in Laredo, Texas, on Tuesday night, leaving one dead, authorities said.
Five others were hospitalized for smoke inhalation.
Onlookers left their cars to help at the scene in an effort to smash the cockpit windshield and free the passengers. The aircraft crashed just after 10 p.m., prompting complete road closures.
This is a developing story.
