A private jet crashed upside down shortly after taking off with eight passengers at an airport in Bangor, Maine.
The incident happened on Sunday evening amid a massive snowstorm hitting much of the north-east US and eastern Canada, with visibility very poor.
CNN reported the condition of the people who were on board the Bombardier Challenger 650 business jet is still not known.
In a statement, Bangor International Airport warned the public to stay away from the area.
Posted at 10.30pm on Sunday local time, it said: ‘First responders are still on scene and are expected to be actively working the site for several more hours before additional information is available.’
