The small aircraft, bound for Provo, Utah, was reportedly unable to lift off the runway and crashed into an SUV shortly after, resulting in a devastating collision.
Among the victims was 12-year-old Graham Kimball, along with three adults: Spencer Lindahl, 43, Rustin Randall, 48, and Drew Kimball, 44. The driver of the SUV was also killed in the crash, though their identity has not yet been released by officials.
The Mesa Police Department confirmed that one person aboard the aircraft survived the crash and is currently hospitalized, receiving treatment for burn injuries. No further details have been provided about their condition.
The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) has launched an investigation into the cause of the crash, with additional updates expected as the inquiry progresses. (ILKHA)
