A woman was walking her dog on Tuesday afternoon when an airplane crashed and struck her in Long Beach, California. The woman, Tiffany Harrison, suffered a broken pelvis and spine, as well as a deep gash in her leg that required two blood transfusions, according to her sister, Brittany McFall. \u201cIt\u2019s almost like an unbelievable story. When we got the phone call that she got hit by an airplane, we couldn\u2019t even believe it because it\u2019s something that doesn\u2019t happen\u201a” McFall told<\/a> ABC7. McFall explained that her sister didn\u2019t hear the plane approaching because Harrison is deaf. The aircraft that struck Harrison when she was walking on a soccer field appeared to be a home-built two-seater, and the pilot, a man in his sixties, is recovering from the accident. \u201cThe pilot is a member of our chapter at Compton airport. He\u2019s been teaching safety classes for years, up until recently. He\u2019s not an inexperienced pilot,\u201d Dennis Lord, the hangar manager at Compton\/Woodley Airport, where the airplane was expected to land, told ABC7. Harrison\u2019s partner, Veronica Barrera, said she saw the plane coming toward Harrison and her dog from their van in the parking lot. \u201cThat plane hit her so fast,\u201d Barrera told<\/a> CBS LA. Long Beach Mayor Rex Richardson released a statement<\/a> saying the city is keeping the victims \u201cin our thoughts and praying for their full recovery from this traumatic experience.\u201d<\/p>\n
