Plane crashes into Florida river at end of runway, no deaths
Officials say a charter plane travelling from Cuba to north Florida ended up in a river at the end of a runway.
A Naval Air Station Jacksonville news release says a Boeing 737 arriving from Naval Station Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, crashed into the St Johns River Friday night.
The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office posted on Twitter that a marine unit responded to assist.
The plane was in shallow water and not submerged. Officials say everyone on the plane was alive and accounted for.
A photo posted by deputies shows a Miami Air International logo on the plane.
The company didn’t immediately respond to messages from The Associated Press.
