Multiple social media users posted video and photos showing the airplane crashing into the ocean.Witnesses told officials the plane appeared to glide toward the water as it descended and then float on the surface of the ocean when it landed.




Charlotte Higdon was on the beach when the plane crashed.

"I happened to look up and I saw the plane coming right directly over top of us, and I said to my husband, 'Look at that! That's strange! It's very close,'" Higdon told CBS Baltimore. "The engine was making a sputtering noise and there was smoke coming out of the one side of it."

Higdon said that she was worried that the plane was going to come down and hit somebody's family on the beach.




"From our angle, it looked like it was coming down in the sand on top of people," she said. "We were panicking like oh goodness is that going to come down and hit somebody's family on the beach."Personnel from the Ocean City Beach Patrol and the Ocean City Police Department immediately responded to the scene. Police spokeswoman Ashley Miller says the Maryland State Police will investigate the incident.Small plane crashes in water near crowded beach in Ocean City, Maryland
