Overview
- A Boeing 767-300 operating for Amazon landed at Miami International and overran Runway 30 on Sunday, then caught fire and struck multiple vehicles according to the FAA and fire officials.
- Local authorities reported at least five people killed and five injured, with three patients described as critically wounded by Miami-Dade fire officials.
- Amazon confirmed the flight was operating on its behalf and said it is cooperating with investigators as the FAA and NTSB send teams to the scene.
- Miami airport briefly suspended operations before reopening at least one runway, and the incident produced major delays and a large emergency response with more than 60 fire and rescue units on site.
- Key facts remain under investigation, including whether the aircraft was carrying cargo and whether the fatalities were crew members or people on the ground, and officials warn findings will depend on on-site evidence and formal probes.
