Federal investigators say a UPS cargo plane’s left wing caught fire and its engine fell off just before a fireball crash after takeoff in Kentucky. The crash and fire Tuesday destroyed the plane and spread to nearby businesses in Louisville, Kentucky. Authorities say at least nine people died and others are missing. Three people were aboard when the plane crashed as it took off for Honolulu from UPS Worldport at Louisville’s Muhammad Ali International Airport. Video showed flames on the plane’s left wing and a trail of smoke. Todd Inman, a member of the National Transportation Safety Board, spoke to reporters Wednesday.
