Texas officials are holding a news conference about last night’s private jet crash, which resulted in one person’s death … and we’re streaming it live.
As we reported … motorists rescued five passengers from the fiery wreck on a highway in Laredo, Texas, Tuesday night … hopping out of their cars and rushing to the scene of the crash.
The Good Samaritans used a sledgehammer and a shovel to smash open the cockpit window to remove the crew and passengers.
Officials previously said the twin-jet Cessna was flying from Los Cabos International Airport in Mexico to Austin, Texas when the plane reportedly suffered a mechanical failure.
