A Boeing 707 has crashed on takeoff at the Naval Base Ventura County Point Mugu and three people on board escaped with minor injuries, authorities said.
The plane has 150,000 pounds of fuel that caught on fire. Ventura County firefighters were called to the base about 5:30 p.m. to help put out the flames.
The plane went off the south end of the runway, authorities said.
Details are still sketchy, but a large plume of black smoke could be seen in the area.
