At least seven people were killed and 11 injured when a UPS plane crashed in a colossal, fiery explosion — leaving a long trail of flames and destruction — shortly after taking off from Louisville’s Muhammad Ali International Airport on Tuesday evening, according to officials and wild footage.
Four people on the ground were killed and the three people who were onboard the flight are presumed dead, Louisville Mayor Craig Greenberg said. The numbers were expected to grow as emergency crews combed the scene for additional victims through the night, Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear warned.
