reports say the pilot ejected right before it hit the house. Eye witnesses say they heard two booms and shortly after they saw the pilot parachuting down. Other eye witnesses say there was a second pilot whose chute didn't open (but that has not been confirmed and most likely a lie IMO). One of my coworkers lives in that neighborhood.

Actually the crash wasn't as bad as it could have been.

I live in University City (about 2-3 miles north of the crash site) and was home when it happened. I heard the pilot eject shortly before the plane crashed. I thought it was all just thunder until I started hearing tons of emergency vehicle sirens. F***ing crazy.

I just saw the news coverage following up with the man who lost his whole family. I couldn't help it and got choked up as they explained that he lost his wife, mother in law, 2 month old daughter and 18 month toddler (pulled from the wreckage today). The family moved into that area just 3 months ago. This is just horrible. Words cannot describe it.

My heart and thoughts fully goes out to him.
