MELBOURNE: Several people died aboard a light aircraft that smashed into a shopping centre near the Australian city of Melbourne, the state premier said.

"A number of people have died as a result of what is the worst civil aviation accident that our state has seen for 30 years," Victoria  premier Daniel Andrews said.
