Small aircraft crashes into Beijing's tallest building, eyewitnesses say

BEIJING, June 26 (Reuters) - An aircraft about the size of a car crashed into Beijing's tallest building on Friday, witnesses told Reuters, with police closing off roads around the skyscraper and authorities ‌giving no information about the incident.

The building, known as CITIC Tower or China Zun, is a 108-storey ‌skyscraper in Beijing's central business district. It is the headquarters of the state-owned conglomerate CITIC Group.

There was a heavy police presence at the ​site, with some approach roads closed to cars.

Two glass panels on a high floor were damaged. There was no immediate official comment or response to a request for information sent to the city government outside business hours.
