Video / Plane crashes on highway: People break windows to save passengers

A private plane crashed onto a highway in Texas, trapping six people inside. Witnesses and emergency personnel used tools like shovels and hammers to break windows and rescue the passengers. One person died, and five survived, with some requiring medical attention due to smoke inhalation. The crash occurred near Laredo Airport, which had previously reported serious mechanical issues. Authorities confirmed the plane struck a vehicle during the crash, but it remains unclear which part of the aircraft made contact with the car. The investigation is ongoing, and the main highway has been closed.

Desetak prolaznika i pripadnika hitnih službi danas je priteklo u pomoć putnicima koji su ostali zarobljeni u privatnom mlažnjaku nakon pada na autocestu u Teksasu. Na snimcima s mjesta nesreće vidi se kako su, koristeći lopate i čekić, razbijali prozore olupine kako bi izvukli putnike i omogućili im izlazak na sigurno.

Prijavljeni problemi prije pada

Avion je letio iz meksičkog Los Kabosa prema Ostinu u Teksasu.

- Aerodromu Laredo prijavio je ozbiljne mehaničke probleme - izjavio je za New York Times direktor aerodroma Gilberto Sančez.

Tokom pada letjelica je udarila u jedno vozilo, potvrdio je istražitelj policijske uprave Laredo Hose Baeza, dodajući da još nije jasno koji dio aviona je ostvario kontakt s automobilom.

Jedna osoba poginula, pet preživjelih

U avionu je bilo šest osoba. Policija je saopćila da je jedna osoba smrtno stradala, dok je pet preživjelih prevezeno u bolnicu i nalaze se u stabilnom stanju.

Identitet poginule osobe još nije objavljen. Snimci objavljeni na društvenim mrežama prikazuju gust dim i vatru koja je zahvatila srušeni avion. Baeza je naveo i da je pet pripadnika hitnih službi zatražilo medicinsku pomoć zbog udisanja dima.

Istraga u toku, autocesta zatvorena

Nesreća se dogodila u blizini aerodroma Laredo, oko 240 kilometara jugozapadno od San Antonija. Zbog uviđaja i uklanjanja olupine zatvorena je glavna autocesta Loop 20, a vlasti su najavile da bi zatvaranje moglo potrajati i tokom srijede.

U istragu su uključeni FBI i Nacionalni odbor za sigurnost saobraćaja (NTSB).
