One woman captured video of the aftermath of a plane crashing into her neighbor’s house outside of São Paulo.
The aircraft crashed into multiple houses, according to Brazil’s Civil Defense, reported by CNN Brasil. At least 62 people on the plane were killed, according to Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.
CNN correspondent Julia Vargas Jones said she spoke to that woman on the phone. The video shows smoke and fire coming up from below her building.
She told CNN she was eating lunch in her kitchen when she saw the plane going down. She said she was terrified and ducked down and started praying.
That woman told Jones it was a “moment of panic in the city.”
Jones reported that the woman is safe now, but she is not able to get back to her apartment. The private roads that lead up to the properties are closed off to everyone, including residents. She said the woman told her first responders are in the area.
