Washington sources reported that Indian teenager has been killed along with two other persons after two small planes collided mid-air in the US state of Florida. The authorities have said Nisha Sejwal, 19, was killed in the accident on Tuesday along with Jorge Sanchez, 22, and Ralph Knight, 72, the Federal Aviation Administration said.
Meanwhile the police said they were trying to trace the whereabouts of a possible fourth passenger after both planes belonging to the Dean International flight school crashed mid-air. An officer said the search and rescue effort that were suspended due to low visibility late on Tuesday, would resume on Wednesday and the police established the identity of Sejwal from her social media page, while Sanchez was found to be a resident from the area.
Moreover the debris of the crashed planes was
located in a region only accessible by airboats. Photos circulating online
showed the wreckage resting on top of a swampy terrain covered by long grass. Furthermore
Miami Dade County Mayor Carlos A. Gimenez told the media that the flight school
has a history of more than two dozen incidents and accidents between 2007 and
2017.
