What happened
While performing the takeoff roll, the left engine of the aircraft failed. This loss of power resulted in asymmetric thrust, which caused the pilot to lose directional control of the plane. The aircraft veered off the runway and struck a building that housed a bar.
All 31 occupants on board the aircraft were successfully evacuated following the impact. While some passengers and crew sustained minor injuries, the collision had a more severe impact on the ground. There were three fatalities reported among the individuals located inside the bar at the time of the crash.
Findings
The aircraft sustained significant damage during the incident and was later stripped for parts as it was deemed beyond economical repair.
