At least five people were killed and five others injured when an Amazon cargo plane overran a runway at Miami International Airport, struck several vehicles and caught fire on Sept. 6, authorities said.
The Boeing 767-300, operated by cargo carrier 21 Air, was arriving from San Juan, Puerto Rico, when it left the runway at around 2 p.m. local time and crossed a nearby road.
Miami-Dade County officials said three of the injured were in critical condition, while the other two sustained less serious injuries. The identities of the victims were not immediately released.
