Plane panel falls outside Miami mall; no one hurt

MIAMI — Authorities say a panel from a cargo plane has fallen outside a Miami mall. No one was hurt.

The Federal Aviation Administration says the piece fell about 11:30 a.m. Friday from an Atlas Air flight en route to Miami from Santiago, Chile.

Christina Baguer is a public information officer for the city of Doral. She says the debris is about 17 feet long and landed in front of a Dillard’s department store at the Miami International Mall.

Baguer says there was no injuries or property damage. The plane landed safely.

The FAA says it’s investigating.
