ROME (AP) — A small private plane has crashed into a vacant office building in a Milan suburb. Italian news reports said all eight people aboard were killed. Firefighters tweeted that no one other than those aboard were involved in the crash Sunday afternoon near a subway station in San Donato Milanese. Fire officials couldn’t immediately be reached to confirm the reports of eight fatalities. The firefighters said several cars in a parking lot were set ablaze by the crash.  Italian media said the plane was flying from Milan’s Linate Airport to the Italian island of Sardinia. The two-story building apparently was under renovation.
