Miami airport plane crash update: Ground stop declared as videos show heavy smoke rising from runway
Reports of a possible plane crash at Miami International Airport have spread online after a large smoke plume was reportedly seen near the runway.
On September 6, Amazon Boeing 767 cargo jet crashed at Miami International Airport (MIA). The plane, which had just landed from San Juan, Puerto Rico, ran off the end of the runway. Thick black smoke billowed from the wreckage as the aircraft lay sideways across a road. The incident occurred around 2pm local time. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) declared a ground stop advisory for MIA due to a disabled aircraft issue, affecting departure facilities in Houston, Jacksonville, Miami, Atlanta, and Washington.
The ground stop period was from 1743Z to 1900Z, with a medium probability of extension. At this stage, it is unclear how many people were on board or the extent of any injuries.
