Plane crashes onto busy road near tourists in Canary Islands hotspot

Tourists in Tenerife were left stunned on Thursday after a small plane crashed in the middle of a road after its engine failed. The light aircraft was heading towards the island's South Airport, but the pilot was forced to pull off an emergency landing as it flew over the San Miguel de Abona neighbourhood, where the popular Amarilla Golf resort is located. As the jet hit the ground at speed, debris was sent flying across the street, but the aircraft eventually came to a stop at a road intersection.
