180 peeps on a burning plane in brazil

SAO PAULO, Brazil (AP) -- A plane carrying at least 150 people crashed into a gas station and burst into flames after landing at Sao Paulo's airport Tuesday, Brazil's airport authority said.


The scene of the plane crash in Sao Paulo, Brazil.

There were no immediate reports of injuries or deaths.

The Tam airline's Airbus-320 skidded off the runway, then crossed a busy road at the height of rush hour in South America's largest city before slamming into the gas station, said Jose Leonardi Mota, a spokesman with airport authority Infraero.

TV footage showed flames shooting into the sky and clouds of black smoke billowing into the air after the crash.

The flight was en route to Sao Paulo from the southern Brazilian city of Porto Alegre, Mota said.

The crash came 10 months after Brazil's deadliest crash, a September midair collision between a Gol Aerolinhas Inteligentes SA Boeing 737 and an executive jet over the Amazon rainforest.

All 154 people on the passenger jet died. The executive jet landed safely
