A US airplane has crashed into a residential area a few kilometers from the airport in Buffalo, New York, killing all 48 people aboard.
The Continental Airlines plane was arriving from Newark, New Jersey before crashing some eight km (five miles) from the airport, US media reported.
The commercial plane hit a house late Thursday, police official John Manthey told the Associated Press.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) said on Thursday that the 44 passengers and four crew aboard the plane were killed.
Local emergency officials said earlier there were multiple fatalities. CNN said one person was killed on the ground.
