LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Videos from phones, cars and security cameras captured the tragic final moments of a UPS cargo plane as it caught fire and crashed in a massive explosion just outside Louisville’s airport, killing at least 12 people and carving a path of destruction on the ground.

The UPS cargo plane crew tried to control the aircraft for about 25 seconds before it crashed into a ball of flames shortly after taking off on Tuesday.

Dozens of federal aviation investigators are on the ground in Louisville searching the crash site's debris field, which covers nearly a half-mile area.
