An "accident" at 524 East 72nd Street in New York City on the Upper East Side. Here's a link to an MSNBC story - http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/15223650/

At this point - 4:12 pm. there's not a lot of information, however "they" - Homeland Security, NYC officials, and so on - say it does not seem to be an act of terrorism. A small plane, which allegedly took off from Teterboro Airport- in NJ, naturally... The pilot was on visual flight rules, in a corridor along the East River where that's been allowed since the 1980s... No excuse for it happening according to all news reports. There will be nothing from any of the crew/ passengers on the plane to explain, so who knows? NYC folks - be careful out there....
Update
Around 5 pm, the news said that the pilot may have been Cory Lidle, a pitcher for the NY Yankees. No confirmation, but they believe it was since he was the registered owner of the plane.
