Engine Failure Causes a Small Plane to Crash Killing One in Titusville, Florida

On Monday, a small plane crashed in Titusville near the Space Coast Regional Airport, prompting emergency crews to respond on Columbia Boulevard, according to the Titusville Police Department.
The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating the four-seat Mooney M20F, which reportedly experienced engine failure after takeoff and struck trees and power lines before catching fire.
Both eastbound and westbound lanes of Columbia Boulevard remain closed while Florida Power & Light shut off grid power to the area, causing outages for nearby residences and businesses.
Officials have not released information regarding the condition of those aboard the aircraft, though Valiant Air Command confirmed none of their staff or volunteers were involved in the crash.
Motorists are encouraged to find alternative routes while Titusville Police continue clearing the scene, with further updates expected as the investigation proceeds.
