53-year old Software Engineer, Joseph Andrew Stack crashed a small single engine plane into a 7-story building in Austin, TX at 10:00 a.m. today. Officials are still trying to decide if it was an intentional act. Witnesses claim that the plane was flying fast and low and that it seemed "very controlled". Officials also state that firefighters went to a house engulfed in flames, believed to be Mr. Stack's house, earlier in the day. There is also a report of a suicide note left by a "Joe Stack" via a social networking site where he ranted about the IRS. Interestingly enough, the building that was crashed into contained an IRS office. More details to come I'm sure...
