A small plane crashed into a body of water in Miami on Tuesday. 

Authorities responded after a small plane crashed into the water off Haulover Beach at around 11:30 a.m. on Tuesday. 

The single-engine plane came to rest in shallow water 40-feet from shore. 

A witness says they saw passengers swim to shore as the plane began taking on water. The plane sank within two minutes.

The two people inside the plane were not injured.
