PhotoShelter user Sandy Huffaker was chillin’ at his computer yesterday
when he heard a “sputtering jet.” The jet turned out to be a FA-18
Hornet which crashed a mile away from his house in San Diego killing
three civilians on the ground. His first-person blog account is here. It’s definitely worth a read, and you can see the above photo at a much larger size.

This morning as I was riding the subway, I glanced over at a guy sitting next to me, and recognized Sandy’s photo on the cover of the New York Times. A big congratulations to Sandy, and we’re all glad that he’s safe and sound.

UPDATE:
Ronan Gray wrote in to let us know that he was also on the scene. His viewpoint is below…incredible stuff.
