 A TransAsia Airways Corp. turboprop plane crashed into Keelung River near Taipei today, Thomas Wang, a spokesman for the Aviation Safety Council said.

It’s not known how many people were on board the ATR-72 aircraft, a propeller plane made by Toulouse, France-based ATR. It’s reported that at least 10 people were taken to the hospital, local media TVBS reported.
