The pilot of the singer's plane was tragically killed in the crash at Scottsdale Airport in Arizona on Monday.
A plane which collided with another aircraft on an airport runway, leaving at least one person dead, was owned by Mötley Crüe lead singer Vince Neil, it has been revealed. The two private jets crashed into each other at Scottsdale Airport in Arizona on Monday, February 10.
"Vince was not on the plane. Vince‘s girlfriend and her friend suffered injuries, albeit not life-threatening. While details are still emerging, our hearts go out to the families about the pilot who lost his life in the passengers who suffered injuries. Mötley Crüe will announce a way to help support the family of the deceased pilot -stand by for an announcement very soon."
Kelli Kuester said the runway had been closed and will remain so "for the foreseeable future". The airport is a popular hub for jets coming in and out of the Phoenix area, especially during large-scale sporting events. A statement from Worrick Robinson Law reads: "At 2:39p.m. local time, a Learjet aircraft Model 35A owned by Vince Neil was attempting to land at the Scottsdale Airport.
Ms Kuester added:"A Learjet aircraft on its arrival from Austin veered off the runway and collided with another jet, a Gulfstream 200 aircraft, that was parked. It appears that the left main gear failed upon landing, resulting in the accident."
