Small aircraft crashes near Vehari, no casualties reported

A light aircraft crashed near the Ratta Tibba area of Punjab's Vehari district, but both pilots on board survived the incident, according to local authorities.

The aircraft went down near Anwar Abad, and police officials reported that both pilots successfully parachuted to safety before the crash. No injuries or fatalities were reported.

The cause of the crash has yet to be determined, and an investigation is expected to be carried out to assess technical or operational failures.

This is the second incident involving a light aircraft in the region recently, raising questions about flight safety protocols and aircraft maintenance in private aviation.

Emergency response teams were dispatched to the site, and authorities have secured the area for further examination.

Earlier, a Cessna 310 aircraft crashed onto Tri-Rail tracks near I-95 in Boca Raton, Florida, shortly after taking off from Boca Raton Airport en route to Tallahassee. All three people on board died, and one person on the ground was injured but is in stable condition.

The crash caused road and rail closures, including North Military Trail and the I-95 overpass at Glades Road, while Tri-Rail services were suspended, and a bus bridge was arranged for commuters.

Emergency crews responded quickly, with aerial footage showing wreckage and fire damage. One witness said the aircraft appeared to be in distress, possibly trying to return to the airport before crashing.

The FAA and NTSB are investigating the incident, focusing on flight path data, possible mechanical failure, and witness accounts. The investigation is ongoing.
