Plane with unresponsive pilot crashes off Jamaica

September 06, 2014 04:06

Shadowed by two US fighter jets, a small plane with its windows frosted over and its pilot apparently incapacitated flew a ghostly 1,700-mile journey down the Atlantic Coast and beyond before finally crashing in the waters off Jamaica.

The fate of the two or more people aboard was not immediately known. Maj Basil Jarrett of the Jamaican Defence Force said the plane went down about 22 kilometres northeast of the northern coastal town of Port Antonio and the military sent two aircraft and a dive team to investigate the area where the plane went down.
