Nine people died after a Bahamas-bound Learjet crashed and then erupted in a fireball in Palm Beach County, Florida, Sunday afternoon, officials said. There are no reports of anyone on the ground being killed, but it did create a significant debris field, the governor said. About 600 people are in need of shelter on the ground due to the crash, a county official said Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, who confirmed the deaths, called the crash a “horrific tragedy.” The plane was a Learjet 60 flying to the Bahamas from Austin-Bergstrom International Airport, according to the Federal Aviation Administration. It is registered to an LLC in Delaware, according to FAA records, and is listed as available for charter online. The FAA and NTSB will investigate the crash, the FAA said.
