“There are two confirmed fatalities,” Fullerton police said.

Television footage showed a gaping hole in the roof of the building, with smoke pouring out.
“All we hear is like a loud noise, boom, and that’s it. Then we started running out” of the building, Jerome Cruz, one of the workers who witnessed the scene, told CBS News.
The plane was a single-engine Van’s RV-10, a small model with four seats, according to the Federal Aviation Administration, which has opened an investigation.
