A pilot suffered major injuries Thursday after a small plane crashed on a heavily trafficked El Cajon street near an Interstate 8 overpass, authorities said.
The pilot, a 65-year-old man from San Diego, was taken to a hospital and is expected to survive, California Highway Patrol Officer Travis Garrow told reporters at the scene.The single-engine plane crashed onto Greenfield Drive about 10:35 a.m. It grazed a concrete railing on the freeway overpass, then “skipped off the hood” of a vehicle headed east on the street below, Garrow said, adding that the impact caused moderate damage to the vehicle.
A stretch of Greenfield Drive was closed to traffic in both directions. The crash site is located about 4.5 miles east of Gillespie Field. The Federal Aviation Administration and the National Transportation Safety Board were called in to investigate. No further information was immediately available.
