A witness told Eyewitness News that it appeared the plane was trying to land at nearby Teterboro Airport.
While it is unclear whose private jet this was, and whether there were any passengers on board, acording to FlightAware, a LearJet-35 was scheduled to land at Teterboro, arriving from Philadelphia.
Also according to Flighyaware, that particular plane – which may not be involved in the crash – appears to be owned by by A&C BIG SKY AVIATION LLC, out of Billings, MT.
