A dead man as a jet belonging to Mötley Crüe Singer collided with the Arizona plane | Arizona

One person was killed and others were injured when a private jet belonging to the singer of Mötley Crüe Vince Neil collided with another jet on Monday afternoon at Scottsdale airport in Arizona, the authorities announced .

Neil’s jet landed at the airport when he left the track and collided with another parked plane, said Neil representative Worrick Robinson IV, in a statement. Two pilots and two passengers were on Neil’s plane, but he was not among them.

“Mr. Neil’s thoughts and prayers go to all those involved, and he is grateful for the critical aid of all the first stakeholders who help today,” said Robinson.

The arriving jet left the track and collided with the Gulfstream 200 Jet which was parked on a private property, according to Kelli Kuester, coordinator of aviation planning and awareness at Scottsdale airport. It appeared that the main left landing train of the arriving jet failed, which resulted in the collision, she said.

Kuester said four people were on the arrival, which came from Austin, Texas, and that a person was on the parked plane.

Two people injured in the collision were transported to trauma centers and one was in a stable state in a hospital, said CAPT Dave Folio of the Scottsdale fire service. He said they worked to recover the body of the person killed in the collision.

“Our thoughts and prayers go to everyone involved in this,” said Folio.

The track has been closed and will remain closed “in the foreseeable future,” said Kuester.

The mayor of Scottsdale, Lisa Borowsky, said in a statement that she was closely monitored the situation and was in contact with the airport, the police and the federal agencies.

“On behalf of the city of Scottsdale, we offer our deepest condolences to the people involved in the accident and to those who were taken to our trauma center for treatment,” she said. “We will all remain assigned by this tragedy in our prayers.”

The airport is a popular hub for jets that enter and leave the Phoenix region, especially during major sports weekends such as the Open Golf Tournament for Waste Management, which attracts a huge crowd to a few kilometers from there.

The Scottsdale collision comes after three major American aeronautical disasters in the past two weeks. A commercial jetliner and an army helicopter collided near the national capital on January 29, killing 67 people. A medical transport plane crashed in Philadelphia on January 31, killing the six people on board and another person on the ground. And last week, a small suburban plane crashed in western Alaska on its way to the Hub of Nome community, killing the 10 people on board.
