An Amazon cargo plane overshot the runway and crashed, sending flames and dark clouds of smoke into the air at Miami International Airport in Florida.
Video showed the Boeing 767-300 cargo aircraft surrounded by thick, black clouds of smoke. Photos appeared to show the Amazon arrow logo on the aircraft.
The flight departed Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport in San Juan, Puerto Rico, for Florida, but overran the runway and crashed while landing around 2 p.m., the Federal Aviation Administration said.
“The FAA will investigate,” the agency added.
An air and ground stop has been issued at the airport, preventing all other flights from landing or taking off.
