Amazon Cargo Plane Crashes at Miami | Colorado Springs News

An Amazon cargo plane skidded off the runway at Miami International Airport Sunday afternoon, crashing into nearby vehicles and killing five people while injuring several others. Thick smoke rose as firefighters battled flames fueled by a leaking tank, with pilots possibly trapped in the cockpit. The 32-year-old Boeing 767, converted from passenger to cargo in 2015, is under investigation amid stormy weather conditions. Authorities are probing whether the aircraft touched down outside the runway zone — echoing last year’s deadly UPS crash. Amazon says it will fully cooperate as NTSB teams arrive to determine what went wrong. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
