A small single‑engine plane hit Beijing's tallest tower on Monday. The aircraft was trying to land when it lost control and hit the glass façade in the central business district. The impact broke part of the side and started a fire. Emergency teams put that blaze out fast and cleared the building. No one died. Several staff walked away with minor injuries.
Police have opened one investigation to learn why that plane went down. The crash comes in a busy news week with other stories making headlines.
