5 killed as light plane crashes into Melbourne shopping centre

At least five people have died after a light plane crashed into a Melbourne shopping centre in Australia today. Authorities said, the complex was not open at the time and police do not believe anyone inside died. 

The charter flight appeared to have had



catastrophic engine failure on take-off from Melbourne's small Essendon Airport. Victoria's Police Minister Lisa Neville said, the five people were travelling to Tasmania's King Island, in nearby Bass Strait. She said it appears to be a very tragic accident.
