What Happened

NTSB Investigation Details: The National Transportation Safety Board is currently investigating a fatal crash involving a Boeing 767-300 cargo jet that overran a runway at Miami International Airport by 1,300 feet. Officials have successfully recovered the flight data and cockpit voice recorders, which are undergoing analysis to determine the factors leading to the incident.

Casualties and Impact: The accident resulted in at least five deaths and multiple injuries after the aircraft struck vehicles both inside and outside the airport perimeter. The wreckage caused widespread devastation, impacting a cleaning service van and a passenger vehicle, while also damaging a facility housing Tesla robotaxis.
