Authorities investigating after plane crashes in Palm Beach County, Florida

Authorities are investigating after a plane with nine people on board crashed in a residential area in Palm Beach County, Florida, on Sunday afternoon, the Federal Aviation Administration said.

The FAA and National Transportation Safety Board will investigate the crash, the agency said.

The crash occurred near Military Trail, between Cresthaven Boulevard and 10th Avenue North, the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement.

The plane was a Learjet 60 flying to the Bahamas from Austin-Bergstrom International Airport, according to the FAA.

The plane descended 27,000 feet over the course of one minute, just before flight tracking data cut off, the website ADS-B Exchange shows.

The crash site is about four miles south of the airport in West Palm Beach, which was renamed for President Donald Trump earlier this year. Trump was in West Palm Beach earlier today, but departed the airport on Air Force One a little more than one hour before this crash.

All northbound and southbound lanes of Military Trail are closed until further notice, officials said, and motorists are advised to avoid the area and seek alternate routes.

美国联邦航空管理局表示，周日下午，一架载有九人的飞机在佛罗里达州棕榈滩县的一个居民区坠毁，当局正在对此进行调查。

美国联邦航空管理局（FAA）和国家运输安全委员会将对这起坠机事件展开调查。

棕榈滩县警长办公室在一份声明中表示，事故发生在军事大道附近，位于克雷斯特黑文大道和北10大道之间。

据美国联邦航空管理局称，这架飞机是一架里尔60型喷气式飞机，从奥斯汀-伯格斯特国际机场飞往巴哈马。

ADS-B Exchange 网站显示，飞机在飞行跟踪数据中断前一分钟内下降了 27,000 英尺。

坠机地点位于西棕榈滩机场以南约四英里处，该机场于今年早些时候更名为唐纳德·特朗普总统机场。特朗普今天早些时候曾到访西棕榈滩，但在坠机事件发生前一个多小时乘坐空军一号离开机场。

官方表示，军事大道所有南北向车道均已封闭，直至另行通知，建议驾车者避开该区域并寻找其他路线。
