A horrific plane crash at Scottsdale Airport in Arizona left one person dead on Monday. The accident involved a private jet owned by Mötley Crüe frontman Vince Neil.
The crash happened just before 3 p.m. A Learjet 35A, registered to Neil’s company Chromed in Hollywood, veered off the runway after landing. It slammed into a parked Gulfstream 200, officials confirmed.
The Learjet had four people on board. It was arriving from Austin when the disaster struck. The Gulfstream had one person inside.
Neil’s lawyer quickly confirmed the rock legend was not on the plane. The attorney also shared Neil’s statement, saying his “thoughts and prayers” were with those affected. He thanked first responders for their immediate action.
Three people suffered injuries. Two were rushed to trauma centers. Another was reported to be in stable condition. Emergency crews worked tirelessly to free one trapped victim, according to Scottsdale Fire Department Captain Dave Folio.
Shocking images from the crash site showed a plane stranded on the tarmac without landing gear. Emergency personnel swarmed the area, trying to contain the situation.
This crash adds to a disturbing trend of recent aviation accidents. On January 29, a catastrophic collision between a US Army helicopter and an American Airlines jet at Reagan National Airport killed 67 people.
Just days later, a private jet crashed into a busy Philadelphia street, erupting in flames. Six passengers and one pedestrian died instantly.
An alarming FAA system outage followed that weekend. The crucial Notice to Air Missions system went down for an entire night, raising serious safety concerns.
The next week, chaos continued. A Japan Airlines plane hit a Delta jet’s tail while taxiing at Seattle-Tacoma Airport. Thankfully, no injuries were reported.
With aviation mishaps piling up, passengers are on edge. Monday’s deadly Scottsdale Airport collision only adds to the fear. Investigators are now working to determine the cause of the crash.
Authorities will conduct a full investigation. Scottsdale Airport remains partially operational, but concerns over air travel safety continue to grow.
