  "account": "The US Coast Guard has ended its search for six individuals who were on a medical transport aircraft that crashed off the coast of Massachusetts' Nantucket Island. Rear Admiral Matthew Lake, commander of the Coast Guard's Northeast District, expressed deep condolences to the families and loved ones affected by the tragic incident. The decision to suspend the search was not taken lightly, stated Lake. Following the discovery of debris from the Gulfstream jet on Saturday night, the Coast Guard initiated a search involving aircraft and vessels on Sunday. The Gulfstream jet, registered to Latitude Air Ambulance, had departed from Bermuda at 12:41 a.m. on Saturday (0301 GMT). The passengers and crew comprised four Canadians and two citizens of Bermuda, en route to Boston's Logan International Airport. A local TV station captured an audio clip of the airport's air traffic controller conversing with the Gulfstream pilot. The pilot, however, did not respond to the controller's inquiry regarding an emergency declaration.",
