An Amazon cargo plane overran a runway at Miami International Airport on Sunday, resulting in a tragic accident that claimed the lives of at least five people. The Prime Air plane was operated by 21 Air, a cargo carrier based in North Carolina, and had arrived from San Juan, Puerto Rico.

The aircraft, a 32-year-old Boeing 767 originally built to carry passengers, burst into flames after striking vehicles and killing multiple individuals on the ground. According to authorities, five people were killed, three critically injured, and two others hospitalized with less severe injuries.

Miami-Dade Rescue Fire Chief Ray Jadallah reported that some people were trapped inside vehicles, while the pilot and copilot were also trapped in the plane. The crash prompted a massive response from over 60 Miami-Dade Fire Rescue units, who worked to extinguish the flames and assess patients.
