All 9 aboard killed in Learjet crash near homes in Palm Beach County, Florida

A Learjet 60 flying from Austin to the Bahamas crashed into a Palm Beach County neighborhood on Sunday, killing all nine aboard and leaving a large crater.

Posted Updated (4 hr ago)

A Learjet 60 crashed in a residential area of Palm Beach County, Florida, on Sunday afternoon. All nine people on board died, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said. Deutsche Welle reports the impact left a large crater near a busy road.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis told reporters there appeared to be no casualties on the ground, according to Al Jazeera. Duffy called the crash a "horrific tragedy," BBC News reports.

The Federal Aviation Administration said the jet took off from Austin, Texas, and was headed to the Bahamas. France 24 reports it exploded in a fireball near homes and a busy road. CBS News reports it hit the ground at high speed, and a witness told CBS it sounded like a bomb going off.

Fox News and BBC News place the crash a few miles from Mar-a-Lago. Al Jazeera says it came down in Greenacres, near West Palm Beach. CBS News says Palm Beach.

France 24 cites air traffic control recordings in which the pilot reported icing, precipitation and severe turbulence before the jet entered a steep dive. No other outlet in these reports mentions the recordings.
