The National Transportation Safety Board released dramatic frame-by-frame photos on Thursday showing an engine of the UPS cargo plane detaching shortly before the aircraft crashed in Louisville, Kentucky, earlier this month, killing 14 people. The six images, released as part of the NTSB’s preliminary investigative report into the crash, show the left engine separating from the left wing and a fire igniting as the plane began to lift off the ground. Three of the cargo plane’s crew members died in the crash, which happened just outside of the Louisville Muhammad Ali International Airport on Nov. 4. The Federal Aviation Administration has grounded all McDonnell Douglas MD-11s, the plane’s model, in the aftermath of the crash.The NTSB’s preliminary report details fractures within the plane’s hardware connecting the left engine to the left wing. “After initial cleaning of the fracture surfaces, examination of the left pylon aft mount lug fractures found evidence of fatigue cracks in addition to areas of overstress failure,” the report states. Air TravelNov 12UPS plane crash victims named by Kentucky officialsnewsNov 7UPS grounds MD-11 fleet, the type of plane in Louisville crashThe plane’s right engine was found still attached to the aircraft’s right wing at the accident site. The report says that the airplane “initially climbed but did not get higher than about 30 ft above ground level” before crashing into a storage yard and two buildings, including a petroleum recycling facility, that were consumed by the explosion. Satellite images show the debris field from the explosion extending more than half a mile. Satellite images before and after the crash show the debris path. (Satellite image ©2025 Vantor.)Video of the crash posted on social media shows the aircraft ablaze in the moments before it crashed just south of the airport, creating a massive fireball. The plane had around 38,000 gallons of fuel on board, officials disclosed earlier this month. The cargo plane was headed to Honolulu, according to officials. The last time a UPS plane crashed was in 2013, when a plane crash near Birmingham, Alabama, killed two pilots.

Jury selection will continue for a third day Thursday morning in Brian Walshe’s murder trial, with 12 jurors already empaneled — six men and six women.Nine jurors were selected on the first day Tuesday, with another three added Wednesday. The judge in Walsh’s case has said she wants opening statements to begin the Monday after Thanksgiving, so there’s still time to find more jurors, though it remains unclear just how many more they’ll add. Walshe is on trial for first-degree murder only after he pleaded guilty Tuesday in Norfolk Superior Court to the lesser charges of disposing of his wife’s body and misleading police in their investigation.Walshe is accused of killing his wife, Ana Walshe, following a New Year’s Eve dinner that they hosted at their home in Cohasset Massachusetts. Ana Walshe, an immigrant from Serbia, hasn’t been seen since early on Jan. 1, 2023. Her body has never been found.Walshe has pleaded not guilty to murder, and without a body, there’s no cause of death. The state will have to convince the jury that Ana Walshe was murdered, and that her husband was the one who murdered here deliberately and intentionally.Prosecutors have said that starting Jan. 1 and for several days after, Brian Walshe made multiple online searches for “dismemberment and best ways to dispose of a body,” “how long before a body starts to smell” and “hacksaw best tool to dismember.”When questioned by investigators, Walshe said his wife had been called back to Washington, D.C., from Massachusetts on New Year’s Day for a work emergency. He didn’t contact her employer until Jan. 4. The company — the first to notify police that Ana Walshe was missing — said there was no emergency, prosecutors said.Investigators said surveillance video showed a man resembling Walshe throwing what appeared to be heavy trash bags into a dumpster not far from their home, and a search of a trash processing facility not far from his mother’s home uncovered bags that contained a hatchet, hacksaw, towels and a protective Tyvek suit, cleaning agents, a Prada purse, boots like the ones Ana Walshe was last seen wearing and a COVID-19 vaccination card with her name.Prosecutors have also said that Ana Walshe had taken out $2.7 million in life insurance naming her husband as the sole beneficiary.At the time, Walshe was at home awaiting sentencing for an unrelated art fraud case involving the sale of two fake Andy Warhol paintings. He was ultimately sentenced this year to more than three years behind bars and ordered to pay $475,000 in restitution.Brian Walshe murder trialBrian WalsheNov 19Jury selection continues in Brian Walshe murder trial after Day 1 fireworksBrian WalsheNov 18Brian Walshe pleads guilty to 2 charges, but murder trial goes ahead
