Flight crash lands in Miami, bursts into flames; Narrow escape for 126 fliers

• A plane carrying 126 people went sliding across runway nine at Miami International Airport and caught fire when its landing gear collapsed on the runway. Three people were injured in the dramatic incident that took place when the Red Air flight arrived from Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. Several videos on social media showed passengers screaming and fleeing from the scene after the plane burst into flames. “Apparently a tire burst, and then it went back up and came back down, and the landing was so hard that the entire landing apparatus was destroyed and the belly of the plane is on the ground,” said Miami-Dade County mayor Daniella Levine Cava.
