All passengers on business jet pursued by US fighters killed

The passengers and crew of a Cessna business jet died in a crash in the United States. There were no survivors at the crash site, according to the press service of the Virginia State Police.

Recall that the incident occurred on June 4. A business jet entered Washington airspace without warning, causing the latest F-16 fighter jets to be launched towards the civilian vessel.

An official report from the North American Aerospace Defense Command claimed that the fighters fired several signal lights, but did not shoot at the business jet. However, immediately after a collision with military vessels, the plane crashed.

On board, in addition to the crew, were the daughter of the owner of Encore Motors of Melbourne, John Rumpel, his grandson and the child’s nanny.
