Bystanders pulled a pilot out of a plane that went down on a set of train tracks near Whiteman Airport in Pacoima on Sunday afternoon, Jan. 9 just moments before a train slammed into the aircraft wreckage.
A small, heavily damaged plane crash-landed on a set of train tracks adjacent to the airport, near the intersection of Osborne Street and San Fernando Road, Los Angeles Fire Department officials said.

The pilot was the sole occupant of the plane, Los Angeles Fire Department officials said. That person was evaluated by paramedics at the scene, then taken to a hospital. Details regarding the severity of their injuries were not immediately released.
The aircraft was described as a small single-engine plane. It remained on the tracks as of 3 p.m. Sunday, halting all train traffic through the area.Further information was not immediately released.
