MUKILTEO, Wash. – Authorities say a small plane crashed on a road shortly after it departed from Paine Airport north of Seattle.

The Mukilteo Police Department said on Twitter Tuesday afternoon that a small plane “was down” at Harbor Point Boulevard Southwest and Mukilteo Speedway, which is also known as state Route 525.

Police said there were no injuries but several vehicles were damaged. Police photos show at least one SUV with what appears to be fire damage to the engine.

The Paine Airport said on Twitter at about 3:40 p.m. that the aircraft departed from one of its runways and then crashed at the end of it.

The Snohomish County Public Utility District said crash-related power outages were restored Tuesday afternoon

KOMO-TV reported the plane is a single-engine Piper PA32.
