A business jet carrying nine people nose-dived into a South Florida neighborhood and erupted into a giant fireball, narrowly missing homes near a busy roadway. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy confirmed that everyone on board the Learjet 60 was killed after it crashed in Palm Beach County. The aircraft had departed from Texas and was headed to the Bahamas. Air traffic control recordings reveal that the pilot reported severe turbulence, icing, and precipitation while cruising at high altitude before the plane entered a catastrophic descent, plunging at rates of up to 30,000 feet per minute. Governor Ron DeSantis described the impact as a cataclysmic crash that left a massive crater. Federal investigators from the NTSB and FAA have deployed to the site to determine the exact cause of the disaster, while local authorities temporarily evacuated nearby residents.
