Dec. 18—A third plane has crashed in Pembroke Pines in the last month, this time sending at least one person to a hospital Thursday.
Around 4:40 p.m., Pembroke Pines police tweeted that a plane had crashed near North Perry Airport in the area of Pembroke Road and University Drive causing multiple roads to be closed.
The Federal Aviation Administration says the plane, a single-engine SOCATA TB10 Tobago, took off from North Perry Airport and crashed about one mile away near the intersection of Pembroke Road and Jodi Lane. There were four people aboard, and none have been identified.
Police say all plane occupants have been accounted for and at least one was injured.
No further details on the crash have been released.
On Nov. 23, the pilot of a small plane was killed after crashing at North Perry Airport. Engine trouble was reported shortly after takeoff. A week later on Dec. 2, two people walked away unscathed after their small Piper plane crashed after landing at North Perry Airport.
