Amazon Cargo Plane Overruns Miami Runway, Causing Fatalities and Flight Disruptions
An Amazon Prime Air Boeing 767-300 cargo plane operated by 21 Air overran a runway at Miami International Airport on Sunday afternoon after arriving from San Juan, Puerto Rico. The aircraft crossed a roadway, struck multiple vehicles, and caught fire near an Amazon warehouse. At least five people were reported dead, with several others critically injured, though it is unclear if fatalities were onboard or on the ground. The incident caused a shutdown of all runways and disrupted about 250 flights. Investigations by the FAA and NTSB are ongoing.
