A woman was walking her dog last Tuesday afternoon in Long Beach when a man flying his homemade airplane dropped out of the sky and slammed into her.
The woman, Tiffany Harrison, never heard the danger coming. Her sister, Brittany McFall, who wasn’t there when Tiffany was hit by a homemade plane, told ABC7 that Tiffany didn’t even have time to react before the home-built, two-seater aircraft crash-landed in a soccer field and hit her.
“We couldn’t even believe it because it’s something that doesn’t happen,” said Brittany’s sister, making quite the understatement.
Harrison suffered a fractured spine, a broken pelvis, and a nasty leg wound that needed surgery. Her dog walked away fine. Her partner, Veronica Barrera, saw the plane descending from the parking lot and could only watch.
