Amazon Cargo Plane Overruns Runway at Miami Airport, Causing Fatal Crash and FirePreviousNext

An Amazon Prime Air Boeing 767 cargo plane overran a runway at Miami International Airport on Sunday afternoon after arriving from San Juan, Puerto Rico. The aircraft struck multiple vehicles, caught fire, and came to rest near a roadway and warehouse complex. At least five people were killed and five others injured, including critically wounded individuals. Emergency crews responded with over 60 units, managing the fire and rescue operations amid ongoing fuel leak concerns. The FAA and NTSB have launched investigations into the cause, while the airport experienced significant flight disruptions.
