American Airlines Jet Crashes in Jamaica

Ninety-one people were injured after an American Airlines plane from Miami with 148 passengers and six crewmembers skidded off the runway in Kingston, Jamaica—but none, thankfully, were killed. The plane ended up skidding across a road and came to a halt with its nose a mere 10 feet from the sea, stopped only by the upward slope of the sand. None of the injuries were considered critical; some had broken bones and back pains.
