At least 5 dead after Amazon cargo plane barreled off runway at Miami airport

The aircraft struck multiple vehicles and killed five people as investigators from the Federal Aviation Administration and National Transportation Safety Board examined the cause.

  • On Sunday, an Amazon-branded Boeing 767 cargo jet operated by 21 Air overran Runway 30 at Miami International Airport, killing five airport cleaning workers inside a company van.
  • The jet traveled approximately 1,300 feet beyond the runway, striking navigational equipment before crashing into the van, breaking through a perimeter fence, and colliding with a Toyota SUV.
  • On Tuesday, Miami-Dade Sheriff Rosie Cordero-Stutz identified the five deceased victims as employees of Professional Ocean Service Corp, who were traveling across airport grounds when struck.
  • Federal investigators are examining why the aircraft failed to stop, noting the airport lacks an Engineered Materials Arresting System, which the Federal Aviation Administration says has saved around 500 lives.
  • The National Transportation Safety Board continues analyzing the crash scene, while the flight's two pilots have been released from medical care and three other individuals remain hospitalized.
