Fatal UPS plane crash in Louisville: 3 fatalities, 11 wounded near airport

A UPS cargo plane crash on Tuesday at Louisville Muhammad Ali International Airport resulted in at least four fatalities and 11 injuries. Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear expressed concern over the possibility of a higher casualty count. UPS, with a major facility in Louisville handling 300 daily flights and sorting over 400,000 packages per hour, acknowledged the incident and the FAA reported the crash of UPS Flight 2976 on its way to Honolulu. Emergency responders quickly reacted to the crash, which led to a shelter-in-place order across parts of the city. Investigations are ongoing, and the airport remains closed until Wednesday morning. Stay tuned for further updates on this developing situation.
