The death toll has risen to 13 after a UPS plane departing Louisville Muhammad Ali International Airport in Kentucky crashed in a ball of flames earlier this week, officials said Thursday.
The victim had been transported to a local hospital in the immediate aftermath of Tuesday’s crash and died there “notwithstanding the amazing care that they received,” Louisville Mayor Craig Greenberg said at a vigil.
“We pray tonight for all 13 of the victims that we know and the other unknown victims and all of their families,” Greenberg said.
