A medevac plane crashed soon after takeoff in Philadelphia on Friday with a child and five others on board, the air ambulance company that operated it said, adding that it had not confirmed any survivors.

PHILADELPHIA — Six people on board a medical transport jet that crashed in Philadelphia were killed. That is according to Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum. The dead included a child who was receiving treatment at a Philadelphia hospital and her mother. At least six people on the ground were injured in the crash on Friday.

Pilot Alan Montoya and co-pilot Jesús Juárez were at the controls of the Learjet 55 as they flew a young girl , who had just received “life-saving care” from a Philadelphia hospital, and her mother home to Mexico, according to the outlet Milenio.

It could be days — or more — until authorities are able to confirm the number of dead and injured, said Adam Thiel, the city's managing director. As of Saturday morning, officials confirmed seven dead — six on the jet, one person on the ground — and 19 injured.

Investigators have also located the aircraft's black box, CBS reports. It could provide clues into the cause of the crash.

Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger, known for the heroic landing of US Airways Flight 1549 on the Hudson River, weighed in on the deadly midair collision.

All six people aboard the plane − a pilot and copilot, two medical personnel, a patient and her mother − died in the crash Friday.

One person in a car was among several killed when an air ambulance carrying six crashed Friday night near a mall in northeast Philadelphia.
