Three people were killed, and another individual was hospitalized following a small airplane crash near I-95 on Tri-Rail tracks in Boca Raton on Friday morning, authorities confirmed.
The crash occurred around 10:20 a.m. when a Cessna 310, which had departed from Boca Raton Airport, was en route to Tallahassee International Airport. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) reported that the aircraft crashed shortly after takeoff.
Michael LaSalle, Assistant Chief of the Boca Raton Fire Department, confirmed that all three individuals onboard the aircraft were killed.
