The wayward and unresponsive plane from Tennessee that flew over the nation’s capital caused the military to scramble a fighter jet before the plane crashed.
, officials said. The fighter jet caused a loud sonic boom that was heard across the capital region.
It was not immediately clear why the plane was nonresponsive, why it crashed or how many people were on board. The plane flew directly over the nation's capital, though it was technically flying above some of the most heavily restricted airspace in the nation. Virginia State Police said officers were notified of the potential crash shortly before 4 p.m. and rescuers reached the crash site by foot around four hours later. No survivors were found, police said..
