Plane Crash Kills 4, Injures Blink 182 Drummer
A Learjet has crashed in South Carolina, killing four people and critically injuring former Blink 182 band member Travis Barker as well as DJ AM.
The plane was carrying six people and was leaving shortly before midnight on Friday when air traffic controllers reported seeing sparks, said Federal Aviation Administration spokeswoman Kathleen Bergen on Saturday.
Debbie Hersman, a member of the National Transportation Safety Board, says the plane went off the end of the runway, crashed through antennas and a fence and careened into an embankment across a five-lane highway, where it was engulfed in flames.
He’s lucky all that he got is an injury.
