An American private jet crashed on a Texas highway, killing at least one person and injuring several others. The NetJets-operated Cessna Citation Latitude, carrying six people, went down on Loop 20 in Laredo around 10 p.m. local time on Tuesday, after departing Los Cabos International Airport at 6:19 p.m. There were mixed reports about whether the death occurred on board or on the ground; five officers were treated for smoke inhalation, none with confirmed injuries on the ground. Authorities said the aircraft tail and fuselage were severely damaged, with video showing the jet on its side and a fire. The incident remains under investigation.
