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

  • 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.
