A small aircraft appeared to have struck the tallest building in the Chinese capital on Friday afternoon, according to CNN, in a startling incident in one of the world's most tightly secured cities.
Citing footage circulating on social media, CNN reported that debris could be seen falling from the 109-storey CITIC Tower, also known as China Zun. The videos also appeared to show the aircraft's tail section on the ground alongside a taxicab with a shattered window.
