A quiet Sunday afternoon in northwest Tarrant County was shattered in an instant by a horrific plane crash that left two people dead and sent thick, black smoke billowing into the sky, visible for miles around. The small aircraft slammed into a busy industrial park near Hicks Airfield, erupting into a massive fireball that engulfed several semi-trucks and trailers in its path.
The crash happened around 1:30 p.m. near the 12000 block of North Saginaw Boulevard. The site was perilously close to residential homes in the Avondale area, alarming local residents.
