UPS Flight 2976, a McDonnell Douglas MD-11 freighter bound for Honolulu, crashed into a field near Louisville Muhammad Ali International Airport around 5:20 p.m. ET on Tuesday, erupting into a massive fireball that killed at least seven people, including crew and ground personnel, and injured 11 others. The incident prompted the closure of the airport, evacuations, and a shelter-in-place order, with Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear describing it as catastrophic. The FAA and NTSB are investigating possible engine failure as the cause.
