4 Dead After Cargo Plane Crashes In Nairobi

Odogwuemekaodogwu.com reports that four people were killed when their cargo plane crashed shortly after takeoff in Nairobi, a police official said  today.

The plane transporting the mild stimulant known as Khat to the Somali capital, Mogadishu, crashed into a commercial building after taking off from Jomo Kenyatta International Airport early Wednesday, said Joseph Ngisa, the airport’s head of police investigations.
Ngisa said preliminary investigations found the plane was flying low after take-off and might have hit an electrical pole before crashing in the Embakasi area of the city, reports the Associated Press.
Ngisa said the four on board included the pilot and his assistant.
