ABC reports it was coming from Taipei, linked forum says Taipei. Video of aftermath. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0dFtmSybpuw&feature=youtu.be.

Redwood City FD responding. Unknown amount of passengers. SFO FD using foam on entire plane.

FAA has now shut down operations at SFO due to "disabled plane"

3rd alarm called, "red" alarm called.

Multiple reports that fuselage is in multiple pieces. Tail is some yards away.

FAA issues statement: "A Boeing 777 operated by Asiana Airlines crashed while landing at San Francisco International Airport." No further details.
