“It was flying and then you heard the engine roar”, said Iyan Warnink, who was riding his bicycle near John Prince Park when the plane went down.
“When I looked back at the video it was like, ‘Whoa, ‘” he said.
Above and below is pre-arrival video from yesterday (Tuesday) evening’s plane crash at a suburban Lake Worth, Florida mobile home park.
Borroto said one mobile home was completely engulfed in flames, and he said there were an “unknown number of victims”, but he didn’t release details about possible injuries or deaths. “Lord, there is a reality we don’t understand”, they said at one point.
The crash could have resulted in a far greater tragedy.
The FAA said the plane crashed shortly before 6 p.m. Tuesday and that homes caught fire. They expect to stay through Thursday, according to Boggs. “It’s very hard thinking about her final seconds”.
Domingo Galicia also escaped with his life.
Galicia said he was sitting on the front porch of the home at about 5:30 p.m. when he heard noises, and within a few seconds the home was struck.
“It was like an explosion”, Galicia said through tears. He was left to make the painful phone call to her mother in Guatemala. “Banny! Banny!” her father said he screamed to her, the heat of the flames upon him.
“I keep picturing her coming but she doesn’t show up”, said Stephanie Martin, 21, who had been friends with the young woman since middle school.
“She was the nicest person ever and she was the best”.
She was a student at Palm Beach State College, liked listening to Christian music and was active in her church. Hearing the news about his former classmate, Jimenez said, “I got goose bumps”. “I want to have faith but I lost it”, she said while trying to cope with the grim reality that her friend was killed. Juri Galicia was at the trailer visiting with her kids and found Banny in her usual cheery mood. “This is all I have, what I’m wearing”, Galicia said. “It’s the last thing I saw from her”. Lori Wilkerson, manager of the Mar-Mak Colony Club mobile home park in Palm Springs, told the Sun Sentinel newspaper she saw rescue workers pull three bodies from the wreckage.
