A small plane crashed onto a front yard in northern Utah Wednesday afternoon, leaving two people with minor injuries.
Shortly before 4 p.m., two people were onboard the aircraft when it crashed in front of a home in Roy, Utah, about 30 miles north of Salt Lake, according to the Federal Aviation Administration. The identities of the two victims have not been released.
Home security footage captured the jarring moment the plane smashed into the front yard. Multiple concerned neighbors can be seen rushing toward the scene of the crash.
Police said the two people onboard were treated for minor injuries, local station KSTU reported. The incident damaged one home and nearby trees in the area.
The FAA and the National Transportation Safety Board are leading the investigation into what caused the twin-engine Piper PA-34 to crash. The NTSB said it will release a preliminary report in about a month.

Anthony Baugh's wife told him that a plane crashed in their front yard while she and their children were home, according to KSTU. He said he quickly watched the security camera footage on his phone.
"I had seen the video footage of the plane kind of sliding towards my house," Baugh told the station. "It immediately left me in a panic trying to get home as fast as I could."
He said his wife offered water to the both victims, a "gentleman" and "young lady," but they refused the offer as they were in shock, KSTU reported. He added that the man "had a cut on his eye or above it on his head."
Baugh said is grateful that his family was not harmed in the crash after having lost people who died in a plane crash in recent years.
"My eldest one, he was a little shook up a little bit, we had some family members that passed away in a plane crash a few years ago, so it was a little nerve wracking," he said. "I don't know how many people out there are religious, but a lot of people here were blessed."
