Nightly news begins right now. Good evening, our top story is developing right now in akron, ohio. Searchers are recovering victims from a fiery plane crash into an apartment building. As many as 9 people were reported to be on board, all are feared deads. The Small Business jet was operating near the Akron Fulton International airport this afternoon, when according to witnesses it clipped utility wires and plunged into an apartment complex erupting into a ball of flames. Tom costello has late details. It happened just before 3 00 p. M. It looks like we have a plane into a house, heavy fire, we have a lot of wires down. Firefighters First Arriving on the scene in southeast akron, found an apartment house fully engulfed. Roberta porter was just 50 feet away. I heard this big loud noise, the plane veered out of the sky and into the duplex. Witnesses say a 10 seater business jet came out of the clouds and seemed to trip over utility lines. And plowed into the apartment house. The debris set the neighboring building on fire. Oh, my god. A neighbor was live chatting with a friend when the plane suddenly flashed by her window. Oh, my god. I need to go to the street. Directly south of thankfully no one was in either building at the time. Its believed no one on the plane survived. We know the plane when it did go down, it struck the one house, and then continued on into an embankment just behind that house.

Some of the nations biggest banks and Financial Firms have been mit by the largest computer hack at this time. Three men are suspected of gaining access in this the personal information of tens of millions of us. Where this hack differs from most is how the suspects allegedly use that information to pocket a fortune. Our justice correspondent Pete Williams explains. The sheer size of the hacking attack carried out over the past eight years is stunning. The biggest target was Jpmorgan Chase. The hackers wormed their way in and stole information about 83 million of its customers. Among others hit, discount stockbrokers e trade and scott trade as well as dow jones, publisher of the wall street journal. By any measure, the data breaches of these firms were breathtaking in scope and size. The defendants allegedly stole personal information for over 100 million customers. Heres the twist. The hackers were not looking to steal identities and credit card information like the hackers who went after target did. They mainly wanted financial customers names and emails many the hackers could send out millions of offers from phony companies they made up to buy cheap stocks. When the 3r50iss went up, the hackers dumped the stocks. All they wanted from Jpmorgan Chase was mostly stepping stone information. Email addresses and things they can use to target those individuals. How the hackers get in . By exploiting weaknesses found in bank computers in egypt and elsewhere overseas. Two of those accused have been arrested in israel. A third, a u. S. Citizen, joshua aaron is on the run, thought to be in russia. Prosecutors are calling this case stock fraud on cyber steroids. It proves that almost any customer information can be used to make millions. Lester . Pete, thanks.
