WATCH LIVE: Learjet 60 crashes in Palm Beach County, FAA says | 11-01-2026

Police tape, utility trucks and a fire-rescue mobile command unit mark the emergency response on a rain-soaked roadway in NBC 6 South Florida's early coverage of the Palm Beach County Learjet crash.

The recorded broadcast opens with eyewitness phone footage of burning wreckage and scattered debris in Greenacres, near Cresthaven. Bystanders watch from nearby as the anchor describes a flight that departed Austin-Bergstrom International Airport in Texas for the Bahamas but crashed in a residential area on Sunday.

At the time of this broadcast, the anchor says the status of those aboard is unknown. NBC 6's subsequent reporting confirms that all nine people on the plane died. That distinction matters for anyone encountering the earlier upload, whose title begins "WATCH LIVE".

The video has drawn an audience far beyond the station's usual short uploads. Related reports have also attracted unusually large audiences, including a family identification of co-pilot Nathalia G. Filgueiras and footage of the hole left in the roadway.

In its follow-up coverage, NBC 6 reports investigators' preliminary indication that the aircraft appeared to break apart before impact. The cause remains under investigation.
