Images of the fiery wreckage taken after an F-18 crashed into a residential area on Friday are compelling in light of news that no one was seriously injured.

The tail section of the F-18 lies intact amidst the wreckage.
While the material damage caused by the crash was vast, neither the aircrew nor any individuals on the ground were seriously injured in the accident.
Multiple firetrucks arrived at the scene as the crash set several apartment buildings ablaze.
The Navy has announced it will begin paying compensation for those who lost their homes in the accident as early as Monday.
