Mexican authorities found Tuesday human remains that confirm the death of the 13 people on board a luxury jet that crashed over the weekend in the north of the country.
The private plane took off Sunday from Las Vegas and was traveling to the Mexican city of Monterrey but crashed in a mountainous area difficult to access, where forensic experts had to arrive by helicopter.
The experts “recovered all the bodies — there are 13 of them,” Coahuila state attorney general Gerardo Marquez said.
He explained that seven of the bodies were “practically intact” but burned, while the other six were “reduced to very small fragments” due to the impact.
