A small medical transport plane crashed into several buildings in the US city of Philadelphia on Friday evening, killing all six people on board and at least one other person on the ground, the mayor has confirmed.
BBC reported that the jet was on a medical transport trip, heading to Tijuana, Mexico, with a short stop-over in Missouri.

It was carrying a child patient and her mother, along with two pilots, a doctor and paramedic. They were all Mexican nationals.
But just one minute after take-off, the Learjet 55 plummeted to the ground. Videos show the plane coming down quickly and sparking a huge fireball.

Nineteen others were injured, though Mayor Cherelle Parker said that number could still change
