Video Shows Moments Small Plane Crashes in Boca Raton
A devastating plane crash occurred on the morning of Friday, April 11, 2025, in Boca Raton, Florida, claiming the lives of three individuals.
The incident took place at approximately 10:20 a.m. near the intersection of Military Trail and Glades Road, in close proximity to the Boca Raton Airport.
According to authorities, the small aircraft—a Cessna 310, a twin-engine plane—was experiencing mechanical difficulties as it attempted to approach the airport.
Emergency services were notified prior to the crash, but the plane ultimately went down in the 1900 block of Military Trail, striking a vehicle on the ground. Both the aircraft and the vehicle erupted into flames upon impact.
Boca Raton Police confirmed road closures in the surrounding area, including portions of Military Trail near Interstate 95, as fire crews and emergency responders rushed to the scene.
