This was a small Mexican registered Learjet 55 belonging to a medical transport company. It had just taken off from Northeast Philadelphia Airport which I believe is a general aviation airport (I'm not familiar with airports in that city), was bound for Tijuana BC MX with a stopover in Missouri, and was climbing out, when it pitched down and dived straight down into the ground. There was no radio communication from the plane declaring an emergency.
When it hit, it exploded in a huge fireball and debris flew all over. Six people were on the plane (four crew, a pediatric patient and the patient's mother) and they are all dead. It crashed into a populated part of Philadelphia near Roosevelt Mall in NE Philly and there are casualties on the ground, but how many is still unknown. Several houses are on fire.
