Bystanders save passengers after fiery Texas highway crash
A private jet with six people on board crash-landed on a busy Laredo highway Tuesday night, burst into flames, and came to rest nearly split in half — and strangers didn't hesitate to run toward it. Drivers left their cars and grabbed sledgehammers and shovels to smash the cockpit window and pry open the plane's door as fire spread across the fuselage. One person on the plane was killed, and the dramatic rescue was captured on dashcam video. The AP's Hallie Golden has the full story — including who owned the jet, where it came from, and why investigators are now looking into a possible mechanical failure.
