On 13 August 2014 a Cessna Citation 560 XLS+ crashed whilst carrying Brazilian Socialist Party presidential candidate Eduardo Campos. All seven people aboard the airplane were killed in the accident, which took place around 10 AM BRT while trying to land at Santos Air Force Base, near the city of Santos, São Paulo. The pilot, co-pilot, a reporter, a photographer and two of Mr. Campos' campaign aides were among the dead.
Crash
The 560XLS+ business jet took off from Santos Dumont Airport, Rio de Janeiro en-route to Santos Air Force Base. Due to bad weather conditions at the destination the first landing attempt was abandoned, and contact was lost at 9:23 am local time. Around 10:00 am, the aircraft crashed into two houses and a gymnasium in Santos, breaking through the walls of several homes. Witnesses reported that the plane was on fire for a few minutes before the accident and tried to dodge the buildings.

Aftermath
All seven people on board the aircraft were killed, including the former governor of the state of Pernambuco and presidential candidate in the 2014 Brazilian general election on October 5, Eduardo Campos; Pedro Almeida Valadares Neto, political adviser and a former congressman from Sergipe; adviser Carlos Augusto Ramos Leal Filho (known as Carlos Percol); campaign photographer Alexandre Severo Gomes da Silva; campaign cameraman Marcelo de Oliveira Lira; and two pilots, Marcos Martins and Geraldo Cunha. Identification of the remains was carried out through the study of the DNA. The Cockpit Voice Recorder did not record any of the conversations during the flight before it crashed. Unlike bigger airplanes, the Cessna wasn't required to have a Flight Data Recorder.
Residents of the local houses were taken to hospital with injuries, one was released immediately, and five others were admitted with minor injuries: two children aged 1 and 9, three women, one of whom is elderly.
