A weather reconnaissance plane used by the US military has crashed on a highway in Georgia, killing five people but avoiding cars on the road in what officials described as a "miracle".
Four of the crew of nine on board the WC-130 are still missing, officials said. It belonged to the 156th Airlift Wing.
“As far we know there were no cars hit in this crash," said Gena Bilbo, from Effingham county sheriff’s office.
"It is an absolute miracle at that time or day and that intersection."
I have been briefed on the U.S. C-130 “Hercules” cargo plane from the Puerto Rico National Guard that crashed near Savannah Hilton Head International Airport. Please join me in thoughts and prayers for the victims, their families and the great men and women of the National Guard.
