From Vfa-106. Two chutes spotted. One of my friends who works in the area said it crashed either into or close to an apartment complex and some homes.

According to the radio station I'm streaming one apartment building was completely destroyed and another is burning. A friend posted this pic on Facebook. http://t.co/JNt8JGKh
