Pets presumed dead from Boeing 737 plane that crash landed in Florida
All 143 people aboard a military-chartered plane survived after the aircraft skidded off a runway into a river in Jacksonville, Florida, on Friday night, but their pets weren't as fortunate.
Although the Boeing 737 plane is not completely submerged in the St. Johns River, the bottom portion, where the pets were positioned, is under water. Capt. Michael Connor, commanding officer for the Naval Air Station Jacksonville, said the status of the pets became the"second priority" for initial responders after it was determined all passengers were safe.
He said he later in the night had first responders do a second assessment in search of pets, but again they did not see any pet carriers above the water. "Unfortunately, they have not been retrieved yet due to safety issues with the aircraft, the Naval Air Station Jacksonville, where the crash landing occurred, tweeted early Saturday morning."Our hearts and prayers go out to those pet owners during this terrible incident."
