This news is from Tokyo. It happens on Sunday in the morning. A plane takes off, but it flies only 500 metres. It crashes.
The plane crashes in a Tokyo suburb. It hits a house. A woman is in this house. She dies. Two men are in the plane. They die, too.
The crash injures two other people. Three houses and two cars get on fire.
Difficult words: take off (to go up), crash (to fall down and hit something), suburb (a city area where people have houses).
