FORT COLLINS, Colo. — A twin-engine plane crashed onto a residential street Saturday, killing all three men aboard, destroying a minivan and setting off several small explosions.
Fort Collins police spokeswoman Rita Davis said the plane didn't hit any homes and no one on the ground was injured.
Residents within a quarter of a mile were evacuated for about five hours as firefighters cleaned up about 100 gallons of fuel that had spilled from the wreckage.
Residents reported the explosions after the fuel leaked into the storm drainage system and the plane caught fire, Davis said in a statement.
