Delays, Cancellations Continue at MIA Following Amazon Cargo Plane Crash that Killed 5 People
Five people died and five were injured when an Amazon cargo plane overran a runway, prompting investigators to examine the cause of the incident.
- On Sunday, an Amazon cargo plane overshot the runway while landing at Miami International Airport, killing five people and injuring five others. The Boeing 767-300 flight arrived from San Juan, Puerto Rico, before striking vehicles on an adjacent roadway.
- Miami Fire Chief Raied Jadallah reported that three of the five injured victims remain in critical condition. Emergency crews rescued several people trapped inside or beneath vehicles hit by the aircraft after it caught fire near a local park.
- Data from Flightradar24 shows the aircraft traveled at nearly 130 mph upon exiting the runway's usable portion shortly before 2 p.m. local time. Investigators are now examining flight data and weather conditions, as the pilot declared no emergency before landing.
- Within seconds of the incident, Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava noted first responders arrived. An Amazon spokesperson stated, "We're heartbroken to learn that five people lost their lives in today," while North Carolina-based charter company Air CEO Keith Winters pledged cooperation.
- The accident occurred during the busy Labor Day weekend, when The Transportation Security Administration estimated about 17 million people would travel through U.S. airports. Authorities have not yet publicly identified the victims, and the cause remains under investigation.
