It was a week ago today that an F/A-18 jet crashed into apartments in Virginia Beach.

Last Friday, flames from the crash ripped through the Mayfair Mews Apartments.

But what was more shocking was the fact that not one person died in that crash, nor the fire that followed.

Since the crash, NewsChannel 3 has seen an outpouring of community support for the families who lost everything.

The Navy has provided the families with checks for living expenses.

Officials say most of the families will be able to move back, but homes that had the worst damage will have to be torn down.
