Overview
- A small propeller plane came down on a San Jose roadway at Capitol Expressway and Excalibur Drive and the crash left the aircraft’s nose crushed against the pavement.
- Three people were aboard — two adults and a child — and all were taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries as a precaution.
- San José Fire Department crews secured the scene, released photos documenting the damage, and absorbed a minor fuel spill to limit hazards.
- No other vehicles were involved in the incident and responders completed on-scene work before investigators took over control of the wreckage.
- Federal aviation agencies commonly open inquiries after small-aircraft accidents, and officials have not yet provided public updates on any formal investigation.
