A cargo plane operated by Amazon overshot the runway at Miami International Airport on Sunday, leading to a deadly crash. The incident caused widespread flight delays and cancellations as emergency services responded to the scene. At least five people were killed, and five others were injured, with some taken to trauma centers in critical condition.
The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) confirmed that the plane collided with two vehicles, including a van carrying seven people. The pilot managed to escape the burning aircraft moments after it landed, according to witness accounts. Investigations are ongoing to determine the cause of the overrun, which experts believe may have been linked to mechanical failure or human error.
Authorities have not yet released details on the plane’s origin or the number of crew members on board. The crash has raised concerns about safety protocols at one of the busiest airports in the U.S. As investigators work to piece together the sequence of events, the incident remains under review for potential regulatory changes.
