Pilot who hit Beijing’s tallest building wrote about ‘ending his life,’ Chinese authorities say

A 66-year-old pilot crashed a small plane into Beijing’s CITIC Tower, the city’s tallest building, after writing about 'ending his life' in his diary. Chinese authorities attributed the crash to 'personal reasons,' citing the pilot’s insomnia, anxiety, and lack of employment. The incident injured 13 people, none critically, and raised security concerns in Beijing’s downtown skyscraper district.
