A UPS cargo plane crashed on Tuesday near Louisville Muhammad Ali International Airport (SDF) in Kentucky, killing at least three and injuring 11, Gov. Andy Beshear said, adding that those numbers will most likely grow.

UPS Worldport is based at the airport, making it a global hub for the package delivery company’s air cargo division, and the airport is its biggest package handling location worldwide.
