A plane has crashed into Beijing\u2019s famous CITIC Tower skyscraper, also generally known as the China Zun.<\/p>\n

The small aircraft broke into pieces, plummeting to the bottom after hitting town\u2019s tallest constructing, which stands at 109-storeys.<\/p>\n

It appears from footage on social media that the skyscraper is basically undamaged, with two windows smashed on impact.<\/p>\n

Police arrived on the scene and evacuated the constructing ahead of the crash, which happened around 6pm local time.<\/p>\n

The whole tail of the plane, identified by local outlets as a B-12PP, was found lying on the road.<\/p>\n

Smoke might be seen rising from the bottom where parts of the aircraft sat smouldering.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not currently clear if there are any casualties, with the pilot reportedly flying solo. The reason for the crash can be unknown.<\/p>\n

The plane reportedly deviated from the flight path, in keeping with Global.hk,<\/a> after taking off from Shifosi Airport half an hour earlier.<\/p>\n

It was resulting from turn around and return to the airport for five.45pm, but flight monitoring lost tracking signal around Beijing\u2019s East Fifth Ring Road.<\/p>\n

After this, the aircraft was unable to be reached and moments later crashed into the skyscraper.<\/p>\n
