"The aftermath of the catastrophe was captured on harrowing drone footage, which showed the chaotic scenes on the ground."
"Shocking footage from the ground soon emerged after the plane went down, as at least six people - all from Mexico - lost their lives when it plummeted into a densely populated area in northern Philadelphia.
The aircraft, operated by Jet Rescue Air Ambulance, was bound for Tijuana, Mexico, with a stop at Springfield-Branson National Airport in Missouri.
The plane had just taken off from Northeast Philadelphia Airport when it fell from the sky, tragically carrying the young pediatric patient and their escort following life-saving medical treatment.
The crash site, near Cottman Avenue and Roosevelt Boulevard, quickly became engulfed in flames, with buildings and vehicles caught in the inferno.
Shai Gold, a spokesman for Jet Rescue Air Ambulance, confirmed the heartbreaking news, stating how the young girl had fought tirelessly to survive her illness.
'She did her course of care. She was going home,' Gold said. 'She fought quite a lot to survive, and unfortunately, this tragedy on the way home.'
On board the ill-fated flight were the girl's mother, a pilot, a co-pilot, a doctor, and a paramedic, each of whom had dedicated themselves to ensuring the child's safe return. But in a cruel twist of fate, the journey ended in disaster.
The Learjet 55, often used for critical medical transport, is a lifeline for patients like the young girl who was onboard. The girl was a patient of Shriners Children's Philadelphia, the hospital confirmed." . . .
