UPS plane crashes and explodes at a Kentucky airport, leaving at least 9 dead and others missing

(AP) First responders searched for more victims Wednesday after a UPS cargo plane crashed and exploded at the company’s global aviation hub in Kentucky, killing at least nine people and creating an inferno that consumed the enormous aircraft and spread to nearby businesses, authorities said. “Most of the things are gone, including some of the vehicles, the semis and the plane,” said Mark Little, chief of the Okolona Fire District in Louisville. The plane with three people aboard crashed about 5:15 p.m. Tuesday as it was departing for Honolulu from UPS Worldport at Louisville Muhammad Ali International Airport. Video showed flames on the plane’s left wing and a trail of smoke. The crash had a ripple effect, striking and causing smaller explosions at Kentucky Petroleum Recycling and hitting an auto salvage yard, Grade A Auto Parts, though it could have been worse, Gov. Andy Beshear said. READ MORE: https://www.wkyc.com/article/news/nat... At 3News, we’re not here to tell you the news, we’re here to share the stories that you say matter most to you.
