However, a Saturday morning update from the Philadelphia mayor's office confirmed that all six people aboard the plane had died. The statement noted that many people on the ground "in parking lots, on streets, in cars and homes in the area" were injured, but the number of injured people "is yet to be released."

People gathered in the Northeast Philadelphia neighborhood from dawn to mid-afternoon to see what remained of Friday's nightmare. They stood yards away from a debris field of broken plane pieces and singed cars to get a glimpse of the wreckage.
