Two people have been killed after a light aircraft made an emergency landing on a beach in Portugal.
The victims were a 56-year-old man and an eight-year-old girl, who were on the beach at Caparica, 20 miles south of Lisbon when the plane crashed.
No-one else on the packed beach is believed to have been injured and the two occupants of the plane were also unhurt.
They are being questioned by police.
Witnesses reported the plane wobbling and skimming the beach before landing, sending holidaymakers into panic.
Some people on the beach ran into the sea to avoid being hit by the aircraft.
Portugal’s national maritime authority said: "A plane with two people on board made an emergency landing on Sao Joao da Caparica beach, striking two sunbathers and causing their deaths."
Portuguese newspaper Diario de Noticias said the aircraft was from a nearby aviation school and was on a training flight.
Accrding to reports, the dead girl was with her parents, who were unharmed.
