An Amazon cargo jet overruns the runway at Miami and kills five people

A Boeing 767-300 cargo plane operated by 21 Air, and contracted by Amazon Air, overshot the runway while landing at Miami International Airport in Florida. The aircraft struck vehicles. Five people were killed. Five others were injured.

An overrun means the plane did not stop on the paved runway. Striking vehicles indicates the impact reached people or equipment beyond the landing surface. The death toll is five. The injury toll is five. The report does not say the totals are final beyond those figures.

21 Air is the operator and Amazon Air is the contractor. The aircraft type is a Boeing 767-300 freighter. Miami International Airport is the airport. The report does not name the flight number or the departure city.

No cause is given beyond the fact of the overrun and the collision with vehicles. Weather, mechanical failure, and crew actions are not assigned. The item is a crash report with casualties, not a finished investigation. Those limits matter for what can be claimed about why it happened.

The same day included other deadly accidents in other countries, including a fuel-tanker blast in Iran and an avalanche in Russia. Those tolls are separate. The Miami figures are five dead and five injured. They belong to this landing.

The confirmed facts are the aircraft type, the operator 21 Air, the Amazon Air contract, the airport, an overrun into vehicles, five deaths, and five injuries. A cause is not stated. Weather and mechanical factors are not assigned.
