I'm hoping it was just a freak accident.

NEW YORK (AP) -- Police say an aircraft has crashed into a building on Manhattan's Upper East Side at 72nd Street and York Avenue. It is near Rockefeller Center.

There was no word on casualties.

Video from the scene shows at least three apartments in the high rise fully engulfed in flames.

It's unclear if it was a small plane or a helicopter.

Hopefully just an accident - that seems likely. There were actually two small planes that had to do emergency landings here in Montreal last month - one landed safely in the middle of Parc Avenue, but the other I believe crashed.

CNN is confirming that NORAD is going to be putting fighter aircrafts over several US cities. Although they believe this initial attack was an accident.

This happened just before elections. Coincidence?

As of right now, the FBI is saying that there is no indication of terrorism.

I doubt it. But I'm sure Bush/Republicans will find a way to connect this accident to terrorists and 9/11 somehow. Nothing works better than fear.

They're reporting 2 are dead and the pilot might have had a heart attack.

MSNBC is now reporting that apparently the plane flew out of Teterboro Airport. And that law enforcement in NY are now reporting that there are 4 dead. Two in the plane and two in the building.

Oh. My. God. How horrible. So sad. Geez, it is so eerie that this happened five years and a month after 9/11. Poor families of the people who died.

^ I'm sorry. Are they okay?

MSNBC is now reporting that a local hospital said they had 9 people admitted, 4 of them are firefighters. One of the people admitted was DOA (dead-on-arrival). And that all signs right now are pointing towards it being pilot error.

The pilot of the plane was Yankees pitcher Cory Lidle who was killed in the crash.
