Two U.S. pilots are killed in a private jet crash in the Dominican Republic as they were flying to pick up former MLB catcher Yadier Molina and his family, according to multiple reports. The plane reportedly departs and shortly afterward reports an emergency, with the pilots attempting to return to the departure or nearby airport for an emergency landing. Sources describe the crash occurring at La Romana airport. Molina communicates about the trip on social media, saying the charter flight was bound for Texas to pick him up along with family and friends. Other coverage adds that the plan was to then continue onward to Puerto Rico. Reports consistently state that both the pilot and co-pilot die in the crash, which is described as fiery. Footage cited by at least one outlet shows the aircraft scraping on the runway before erupting into flames. Authorities’ investigative details beyond the emergency attempt and location are not described in the provided excerpts. The incident occurs during the flight intended to transport Molina and his party from Texas.
