Prayers first for the nine people aboard a private Learjet 60 that crashed Sunday around 12:50 p.m. near Military Trail in Palm Beach County. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy says all nine were killed. Palm Beach County Fire Rescue declared a mass casualty incident, and the BBC reports the crash site sits about nine miles from Mar-a-Lago. The jet had taken off from Texas and was bound for the Bahamas. The FAA is sending a team to support the NTSB, which is investigating the cause. Jim Reynolds, a spokesman for Austin-Bergstrom, told the Washington Examiner, "This is definitely a tragedy." It is not yet clear whether anyone on the ground was hurt. Our thoughts are with the families of everyone on that jet.
