Florida authorities said a twin-engine propeller plane crashed in a rural part of Miami-Dade County shortly after takeoff Wednesday, killing all four people aboard, according to ABC News.
Federal Aviation Administration spokeswoman Kathleen Bergen identified the plane as a Beechcraft 1900 that had been headed to Providenciales in the Turks and Caicos Islands. She said the plane was attempting to return to Miami Executive Airport when it crashed about 2:45 p.m.
All four people on board the aircraft died in the crash, said Miami-Dade Fire Rescue spokesman Lt. Arnold Piedrahita. He said the pilot reported engine problems after takeoff, then clipped a power line before the plane hit the ground and burst into flames. No buildings on the ground were damaged in an area dominated by farmland, although one large structure was not far away.
