Eleven skydivers and their pilot died in a plane crash Sunday in Missouri after the aircraft made a sudden turn in midair.
The private plane had left Butler Memorial Airport around 11:30 a.m. local time before turning around for an unknown reason near Business 49 Highway and then crashing shortly afterward, FOX4 reported.
Everyone on board perished.
It was not clear if any skydivers may have jumped from the doomed plane before it crashed.
The Federal Aviation Administration and the National Transportation Safety Board scrambled to the scene to begin investigating.
All lanes on Business 49 Highway were closed close to the airport while crews worked to clear the wreckage and determine its cause, Bates County Sheriff’s Office said.
