Fatalities from UPS cargo plane crash in Louisville increase to 15

The death toll from the UPS cargo plane crash in Louisville, Kentucky, has risen to 15 people as the victim, Alain Rodriguez Colina, passed away after suffering severe injuries from the incident. The crash occurred more than seven weeks ago on Nov. 4, when UPS Flight 2976 crashed shortly after takeoff from Louisville International Airport. The three pilots on board and 12 individuals on the ground lost their lives, while nearly two dozen others were injured. The NTSB's preliminary report revealed that the plane reached an altitude of only 30 feet before crashing, with the left engine separating from the wing during takeoff due to evidence of cracks in the engine mount. The investigation is ongoing, and the final report is expected to be released within the next two years.
