Small plane crashed into a car 

One person was killed Saturday when a small plane crashed into a car on a freeway in Southern California. At least five people were injured.

The plane, carrying two people, landed on top of a car on northbound Interstate 15 about 50 miles north of San Diego County, The San Dioego Union-Tribune reported.

California highway patrol officer Tony Polizzzi said one person in the car died and three others were hospitalized, the Associated Press reported. The two occupants of the plane were also taken for treatment.

The white and blue plane ended up just off the roadway, but the accident tied up two lanes and caused major backups.
