A small single‑engine plane hit Beijing's tallest tower on Monday. The aircraft was trying to land when it lost control and hit that glass façade in that central business district. The impact broke part of the side and started a fire. Emergency teams put the blaze out fast and cleared that building. No one died. Several workers walked away with minor injuries.
Police have opened one investigation to learn why the plane went down. The crash comes in a busy news week with other stories making headlines.
