A twin-engine plane crashed and burst into flames on a California highway Friday morning local time, authorities said.
The two people aboard the Cessna 310, a man and a woman, suffered traumatic injuries and were transported to local hospitals after the crash.
An off-duty fire captain on his way to vacation with his family helped save the pair from the plane. Captain John Meffert has been with the Avalon Fire Department on Catalina Island for 17 years. The plane’s wing scraped across the hood of his car as it crashed.
