Aircraft Hit Federal Reserve Building 24 minutes ago Add U.S. National - AP to My Yahoo! MIAMI (AP) - A small plane crashed into the Federal Reserve (news - web sites) Bank Building and one body was recovered from the wreckage Thursday night, the branch manager said. About 90 people were evacuted from the one-story building, and no one inside was injured. The aircraft slammed into the northeast side of the bank about 8:45 p.m., exploded and burst into flames. A Federal Aviation Administration (news - web sites) spokeswoman, Kathleen Bergen, called the plane a single-engine aircraft that is likely to be a home-built experimental aircraft. Another FAA spokeswoman, Laura Brown, said she didn't immediately know where the airplane took off from or where it was headed when it crashed into the building. "When we first came out of and walked around the side, it was really hard to determine that it was a plane," said vice president and branch manager Jay Curry, who was in the building for a board of directors meeting. The building also houses the Miami bureau of The Associated Press.
