A business jet crashed in Florida on Sunday, killing all nine people on board, the US transport secretary has said.
The aircraft had departed from Austin, Texas, and was headed to the Bahamas, the Federal Aviation Administration said in a statement.
Flight analysis indicated that the jet was plummeting hundreds of feet per second before crashing. It is not yet clear who was aboard.
Thunderstorms had been reported in the area at the time of the crash.

Pray for the families who lost loved ones. Spread more compassion instead of hate and conspiracies. The world needs more compassion right now.
