California, Aug 6 (IBNS): A small plane crashed in a shopping center parking lot in Orange County, California, southeast of Los Angeles on Sunday, leaving at least five people killed, media reports said.

The plane was reportedly making an emergency landing when the mishap occurred.

All of the victims, none of whom were immediately identified, were aboard the twin-engine Cessna when it went down at about 12:30 p.m. (3:30 p.m. ET) as it was headed for an emergency landing at John Wayne Airport in Santa Ana, reported NBC News.

No one on the ground was injured in the mishap.

A car, which was present in the parking lot, was reportedly damaged after the plane crashed on the parking spot.

Peter Knudson, a spokesman for the National Transportation Safety Board, which is investigating along with the Federal Aviation Administration, told NBC News the plane had been given approval to land at John Wayne after the pilot declared an emergency.
