A seaplane carrying eight people crashed into New York City’s East River on Sunday, with emergency responders rushing to the scene, video shows.
Footage of the river shows the plane bobbing in the water with one wing submerged as rescue crews work to get the passengers out.
The plane took a hard landing in the choppy waters and partially capsized at just after 12 p.m., officials told The Post.
Eight people were rescued from the plane by the FDNY. Two passengers with minor injuries were evaluated by emergency medical staff, officials said.
The crash unfolded near the Manhattan ferry and Skyport terminal along 23rd Street and FDR Drive.
After the passengers were removed from the plane, the ship was put upright on the water and towed back to the docks.
At least five ships were seen aiding in the response, with another seaplane spotted nearby.
An investigation into the crash remains ongoing, police said.
The incident comes less than a month after another seaplane was rescued from the East River after it was struck by a wave during takeoff and left it struggling in the water near the Throgs Neck Bridge.
