Small aircraft crashes into a 50-story condo tower on the Upper East Side. Two fatalities reported so far. FBI says—what else?—there's no indication it was terrorism.
Update: The story gets weirder. There was a mayday call, and the pilot may have been controversial Yankees pitcher Cory Lidle.
Conspiracy update: Lidle's passport was found in the street below the crash site? I'm beginning to suspect a Steinbrenner setup.
