Early yesterday morning, Deadline reports that Chicago’s WGN urgently reported a plane crash in the middle of a local road. Apparently, it was actually just a scene being filmed for Chicago Fire.
Though the area was littered with signs indicating that filming was in progress, local anchors couldn’t see them and believed the accident was real.
The Chicago Fire Department admitted that the information wasn’t widely distributed. A CPD spokesperson later said, “In the future, I’m asking my people to let me know so I can let the media know. News desks need to know.”
