Taiwan Plane with 53 aboard crashes

A commercial flight from Taiwan with 53 passengers clipped in a bridge shortly just after takeoff and immediately crashed in the Taipei river.

Initial reports reveal that 10 people awaits rescue after the plane crash incident. But there was no confirmation that will clarify what happen to the remaining passengers or they have been already rescued.

Pictures captured from the Taiwanese plane crash circulate around social medias, some pictures posted on the plane about 100 metres from the Keelung river shore.

The plane was then identified as ATR-72 a twin engine turboprop French made and a two pilot aircrew plane. The local media is collecting images veering the plane across the highway before it crashed in the river.

In photos, dozens of rescuers immediately responded the incident trying to get the passengers out of the submerge aircraft.
