An airplane falls over a factory in Ecuador

Quito, Ecuador - Only six not seriously injured

A little civil airplane, taken off from Cuenca airport, in Southern Ecuador, and headed to Macas, crashed onto a tyre factory last Saturday. Six of 14 passengers on board were injured and taken to the hospital, though the rescue operations were particularly hard because of the aircraft position, jammed in the factory’s ceiling. None of the injured people seem to be in serious conditions.
