Bolivian Army Plane Carrying Cash Crashes on Highway
(MENAFN) A military cargo aircraft transporting large amounts of newly printed cash crashed onto a busy highway near Bolivia’s administrative capital on Friday, killing at least 15 people and creating chaos as banknotes were scattered around the site.
The Lockheed C-130 Hercules, operated by the Bolivian Air Force, lost control while attempting to land in poor weather conditions in El Alto, near La Paz. The plane was reportedly carrying currency from the central bank to regional cities.
After skidding off the runway, the aircraft struck several vehicles before its debris came to rest in a nearby field, according to Fire Chief Pavel Tovar. At least a dozen vehicles were damaged, and burned wreckage and bodies were reported along the highway.
