At least one person has died after two planes collided Wednesday morning at an Arizona airport, police said.
The crash happened at the Marana Regional Airport in Marana, about 21 miles northwest of Tucson.
The Marana Police Department said in a Facebook post that it was on scene. The Federal Aviation Administration and the National Transportation Safety Board were expected to respond.
The department confirmed the fatality but said additional details were “limited at this time.”
The collision follows several other aircraft crashes including a fiery crash-landing at a Toronto airport, a fatal air ambulance crash in Philadelphia on Jan. 31, and the midair collision between an Army helicopter and a commercial airplane. In that incident, all 67 passengers in both aircraft were killed, making it the deadliest U.S. air crash in almost a quarter century.
