BREAKING: 5 dead, 5 injured after Amazon cargo plane overshoots runway at Miami International Airport

Witness videos shared on social media show an Amazon Air / Prime Air Boeing 767-style cargo plane near the airport’s perimeter fence and adjacent road, with smoke visible. Emergency personnel were present, responding to the scene.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) changed the status of the airport to note a "disabled aircraft on the runway," which appears to align with the plane shown in the social media footage.

In a statement posted to social media, the FAA said: "21 Air Flight 7598 overran the runway after landing at Miami International Airport around 2 p.m. local time on Sunday, Sept. 6. The Boeing 767-300 cargo aircraft departed from Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The FAA will investigate. Contact the airline for additional information."

Departures from the airport were grounded after the incident.

Miami-Dade Fire Rescue said in a statement that crews "received reports of a hazardous situation involving a plane that overran a runway and struck multiple vehicles" at 1:55 pm local time. "Multiple patients" were reported, and over 60 members of Miami-Dade Fire Rescue responded to the scene.

Mayor Daniella Levine Cava confirmed in a press conference later on Saturday that five people were killed, with an additional five people injured who were transported to the hospital. Three of the five people injured are in critical condition.

According to a report by NBC 6, the two pilots were among those taken to the hospital.

Amazon said in a statement that the company was working closely with local authorities to investigate the circumstances of the incident.

"Right now, our absolute priority is the safety, well-being, and care of everyone involved. We're doing everything we can to support those affected," Amazon said.
