A plane burst into a fireball after crashing into a Minnesota home on Saturday, prompting an evacuation. 

The aircraft fell from the sky in Brooklyn Park around 12:30pm near Noble Parkway on Saturday, according to Fox 9

The home erupted into flames, leaving billows of black smoke rising in the air, causing first responders to evacuate the area. 

No one was inside the home at the time of the crash, according to Fox 9. 

The aircraft in question was a SOCATA TBM7, a single-engine plane used for business purposes. It took off from Des Moines International Airport with its destination set for Minneapolis as reported by the source.

It is unclear how many were on board and if there were fatalities.  

Multiple nearby residents were seen standing outside the home watching as a violent fire engulfed the residence, video taken by Mike Deyo showed. 

‘Looks like a plane crash in Brooklyn Park,’ he can be heard saying as he filmed. 

Firetrucks arrived on scene with emergency personnel telling locals to step away from the fire. 

‘Ten minutes ago, this house was still there,’ Deyo said in the video as crackles and pops can be heard coming from the center of the fire. 

The house appeared to burn down to the studs within a matter of minutes. 

Governor Tim Walz said his ‘team is in touch with local officials on the scene’ and they are ‘monitoring the situation closely.’ 

‘Grateful to the first responders answering the call,’ Kamala Harris’ former Vice Presidential running mate wrote on X

DailyMail.com has contacted the Brooklyn Park Fire and Police for comment. 

The crash is under investigation.  

Several planes have been involved in fiery collisions since the first of the year. 

The most deadly this year was when an American Airlines flight and a Blackhawk collided nearly Reagan National Airport in Washington DC, killing 67, including many young ice skaters.  

Near the same airport, a US Air Force jet nearly collided with a Delta airplane this week. 

The flight, with 137 people on board, had just departed for Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minnesota, when it suddenly received an emergency notification of a nearby aircraft.

Alarms went off inside the cockpit of the passenger flight just minutes after taking off, due to how close the T-38 jet came to the plane.

The close call happened just south of the airport and close to the spot where an American Airlines jet collided with an army helicopter in January. 

According to tracking data from FlightRadar 24, the Air Force jet flew past the Delta plane in excess of 350 miles per hour.

The FAA said the military jet was in the area alongside three others for a flyover at Arlington National Cemetery.

Five people were rushed to the hospital earlier this month after a plane crash-landed in a retirement home parking lot in Pennsylvania. 

The plane took off as scheduled, but quickly requested to land back on the tarmac because its door had opened.

Horrifying air traffic control audio revealed the pilot telling ground agents that they needed to turn around – but at one point he said that he couldn’t hear the radio because of all the wind noise, caused by the unlocked hatch.

The air traffic controller can be heard saying: ‘Pull up… the aircraft is down just behind the terminal in the parking lot tree area.’

In a statement to DailyMail.com, an FAA spokesperson said five people were on board the plane. They have all been transferred to local hospitals with various injuries.

Residents of the retirement home were instructed to ‘shelter in place’ as a precaution as initial investigations took place, but authorities have confirmed the pilot avoided nearby buildings and that nobody on the ground was injured.
