WATCH: Video Shows Small Plane Crashing Into Connecticut House

HADDAM, Conn. (CBSNewYork) -- New video has been released showing the moment a small plane crashed into a house in Connecticut.

The plane went down Saturday in Haddam, shortly after taking off from nearby Goodspeed Airport.

Norman Hannenbaum said he was home watching television when he suddenly heard a loud noise.

"I heard this crash and I was stunned. I didn't know what to do. I didn't know how to react," Hannenbaum said. "I see the ceiling fall in and I thought originally that it was a tree. I just ran out of the house."

The pilot has been identified as Benjamin Temple of East Rockaway.

Temple is in critical condition at Hartford Hospital.

The FAA is investigating the crash.
