Nine people died when a private business jet crashed in a road near the Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida, authorities are investigating the incident. The Bombardier Learjet 60, which was en route from Austin, Texas to the Bahamas, crashed near Palm Beach, Florida on Sunday afternoon, killing all nine on board. United States Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy described the accident as a "terrible tragedy" and said the Federal Aviation Administration would send a team to support the National Transportation Safety Board's investigation.
The plane struck a residential area in Palm Beach, about eight miles from the President's Mar-a-Lago complex. Governor Ron DeSantis described the crash as "catastrophic" and said there were no fatalities or injuries on the ground, but significant material damage. Around 600 people sought shelter in the area due to the accident. Many parts of South Florida experienced severe thunderstorms and flash flood warnings on Sunday. In June, twelve people traveling on a paragliding flight died in an accident in Missouri.
