里斯本飞机失事
里斯本飞机失事
A light plane made an emergency landing on a crowed beach near Lisbon on Wednesday, killing a man and an 8-year-old girl who were sunbathing.
Hundreds of sunbathers were on the beach at Caparica, 30 kilometers (20 miles) south of Lisbon, and witnesses said some sunbathers ran into the sea to avoid the plane. The National Maritime Authority said the man and the girl died on the beach. It did not give the man's age, but local media reported he was 50. The dead girl was with her parents, who were not hurt. The plane passed over the dead man's legs as he sunbathed on a towel. No others were reportedly hurt.
The small aircraft carrying two people seemed to be in difficulty and shook as it skimmed low over the sunbathers, making them run around on the beach and panic, witnesses said. The plane seemed to have a partly broken left wing, which was lower than the right wing, television pictures showed. The two people in the plane were not hurt and were taken away by police.
