A major home invasion in Sherman Oaks turned into a hot prowl with shots fired — it’s unclear whether the gunfire came from the suspects or the homeowners. Meanwhile, Michael Monks provided recaps of election night, including Prop 50 results and Governor race updates. The hour also covered a deadly UPS cargo plane crash, killing at least 11 people, after the plane — loaded with 38,000 gallons of jet fuel — crashed while preparing for a flight to Hawaii.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's KFI Am sixty and you're listening to The Conway
Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. We'll talk about
politics here in a second, about what happened last night,
But first, a home invasion robbery in the Sherman Oaks area.
Shots fired. So it's not getting any better out there.
We talk about home invasion robberies almost every night, almost

(00:24):
every afternoon here on the program. That are happening in
Studio City, Sherman Oaks, Encino, Tarzana, Woodland Hills, Calabasas, that
whole run, that whole northern face of the Santa Monica Mountains.
It happens a lot. And when another one just happens,

(00:46):
we're getting information on that. We'll tell you where and
how gruesome it was. Who got hurt, they might get killed,
or anybody get injured. We'll have that for you a minute.
But first, last night with politics, I watched a bunch
of stations and a lot of people were reporting that
this is a complete referendum, you know, Donald Trump's position

(01:10):
on all these issues. That's that's not true, that's not true.
It was New Jersey, which is a blue state voting blue.
It was New York blue state voting blue, Virginia blue
state voting blue, and California blue state voting blue. So
they're either purposely misleading you, or they're not very bright,

(01:31):
or they're lying to you when they say that. Okay,
that being said, I like that this guy won in
New York. This Mondamie is that his name Mondami And
I don't follow local politics much because I find it
pretty boring, but I think that he is the beginning

(01:55):
of the new Democratic Party. He's the face of the
new Democratic Party. Now I'm a I'm a student of communism.

Speaker 2 (02:05):
I don't know, you know, but no, what really? Yeah, okay,
I I never told you about that.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
No, Yeah, my my dad was outed as a communist
in Hollywood and spent three or four years on the sideline,
you know what, because he couldn't work. Yeah, they were
going to do with the Apple Dumpling Gang rides again
and again. It was gonna be the third in the
trilogy of the Apple Dumpling Gangs. And they found out
my dad was a communist and he wouldn't they wouldn't

(02:37):
hire him.

Speaker 3 (02:38):
What when did the Apple Dumpling Gang those late seventies. Okay,
the communist movement that was like in the continued.

Speaker 1 (02:45):
Thirty You know you and you're telling me that from
when you were a child in Denver, you studied the
communists in Hollywood.

Speaker 2 (02:53):
When you were a child in.

Speaker 4 (02:54):
Denver, we studied things.

Speaker 2 (02:56):
Yes, that right? Is that right?

Speaker 4 (02:57):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (02:58):
About It's totally true. Look it up.

Speaker 1 (03:00):
And my mom was a big communist as well. She
once dated Fidel Castro. I mean not for long, but
they went out to dinner.

Speaker 4 (03:08):
Yes, that's a true story. Is that why they call
her big Red?

Speaker 1 (03:13):
That's right? Yeah, I never wanted to say that, but thanks, Angel.

Speaker 4 (03:18):
Appreciate that you have red hair and that's why they called.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
It whatever, whatever, whatever.

Speaker 1 (03:22):
I'm a student of communism, really yes, and I will
tell you that communism and socialism doesn't work. But it
has never been tried in a well established economy.

Speaker 2 (03:36):
You know.

Speaker 1 (03:36):
Socialism and communism has always been introduced to a country
or a region when that country wasn't doing well. But
the United States is doing well, and we've never had
a socialist or a communist run a big city or
a state, and now we do. So we're going to
see whether it works. If it works, it will spread
throughout the country. If it doesn't, work, well, they'll go

(03:58):
back to the old days. But I'm not afraid, and
I don't hate this new generation of Democrats, you know,
AOC and the people, you know, the younger generation of Democrats.
They seem to be talking the talk and walking the
walk or whatever that's saying, is walking the talk and
talking walking the walk.

Speaker 2 (04:19):
Okay, let's go with that.

Speaker 1 (04:20):
They seem to be out for the citizens. The old
school liberal Democrats like Nancy Pelosi. I'll throw Newsom in there,
the leader of the Senate, Chuck Chuck Schumer, those old
school that's over, that ended last night. That's done. They

(04:44):
are done. But Nancy Pelosi only fought for herself. She
lined her pockets. She made hundreds of millions of dollars
off the backs of you know, selling you a better home,
a better job, a better economy, all that stuff. And
look what she did to California and more specifically San Francisco.

(05:05):
It's an s whole. So I like these newer and
I think of the Democrats have found their version of
the tea Party that the Republicans did years ago. You know,
the Republicans throughout all the old stars, years and years
and years ago, most of them are gone, but the
Democrats held on to him like Chuck Schumer. But I

(05:27):
think Bernie Sanders is part of the younger even though
he's eighty five or eighty eight, however old he is,
he's the younger in the younger generation. He's with AOC, Amandamie.
He's with that group. And he would have won. He
would have beaten Donald Trump for president if he wasn't
smashed and crushed by the Clinton machine. Okay, there's another one.

(05:50):
There's another old school Democrat, the Clintons, you know, the Clintons,
the Pelosis.

Speaker 2 (05:56):
All of that is over. It's over.

Speaker 1 (05:59):
And last was the beginning of the new Democratic Party,
the aocs, and that group is taking over. And by
the way, I share a birthday with AOC. She was
born on October thirteenth, and so was I a couple
of years apart. I'll give her that. But you know,
when you share a birthday with somebody, you sort of

(06:19):
have something in common. You know when you went to
you know when they went to school. They celebrate on
the same day when I celebrate my birthday. Now I
celebrate on the same day as AOC. So that's got
a weird connection. But it's a connection. But it's going
to be exciting to see the New Democratic Party, the
party that fights for employee employees, not employers, and fights

(06:43):
to you know, for everything they that they need, you know, housing,
cheaper prices on everything. So we'll see, We'll see if
it works in New York, if socialism slash borderline communism,
if they do take take over businesses. Let's see if
it works in New York. If it works in New York, again,
it'll spread throughout the country. If it doesn't work in

(07:04):
New York, back to old school. But I think if
you're Chuck Schumer, like Nancy Pelosi was interviewed on Alex
Michaelson The Story is a brand new show on CNM,
and she said she was retiring. She's a very smart woman,
very calculated. And the reason why she said she's retiring
because she knew if this Mondamie got into New York,

(07:25):
she's done.

Speaker 2 (07:26):
She is done.

Speaker 1 (07:27):
And when she said, oh, I could win with these,
she doesn't believe that. She knew she would probably lose,
she would get primaried and probably lose. The New Democratic
Party started last night, and this old Democratic Party that
sold you lies and misrepresentations and lining their own pockets
with money. Is over. It's done. Last night was the

(07:52):
beginning of the.

Speaker 3 (07:53):
End of it.

Speaker 2 (07:53):
All right, we'll come back and I think we're having
monks on them, Is that right?

Speaker 4 (07:58):
Well, that's correct.

Speaker 1 (07:58):
All right, we'll put Michael Monks on. All right, very good.
We're live on KFI AM six forty. We'll get information
on this home invasion in Sherman Oaks. Shots fired, shots fired.
We're back to talk about that as well. Crazy day.

Speaker 5 (08:12):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.

Speaker 1 (08:18):
Before we get the monks. Nice to see you, Monks.
How you buffm Well, it's great to see you too.
I was at Jamba Juice listening to you last night
with Chris Merrill and you had some other cat on
and while I was eating one of those big ass
orange dream machines.

Speaker 2 (08:32):
Yeah, those are beautiful.

Speaker 1 (08:33):
Man, And enough yogurt in there where it didn't really
upset my stomach.

Speaker 2 (08:38):
You think it's going to help keep you regular? I
hope so. I hope so. I hope so too. That's
the key. Just text me later, okay, excellent, All right.

Speaker 1 (08:44):
Let's get into this before we talked to monks about
last night and all the you know, the numbers, the
totals and what direction the country is going in. There
is a problem in Sherman Oaks, another home invasion and
this one shots have been fired.

Speaker 6 (08:58):
This is the eight hundred block of Onsego Street near Willis.
Now we understand that LAPD Dan's division officers got the
call the home invasion hot prowl on the street. I'm
going to zoom into a house that we believe was
the target of those home invaders. I could tell you
that the homeowner was at home at the time when
three males attempted to enter his house. At some point

(09:19):
shots were fired. And it's unclear if the homeowner did
the shooting or if it was the suspects that opened fire,
but they were last seen leaving eastbound on Otsego Street
towards Van Ey's Boulevard in a gray jeep Cherokee. Now
we understand that the well. I could tell you that
it appeared that the homeowner was not injured. There were
no injuries reported from that shooting. But again the LAPED

(09:41):
is investigating this. Shots fired at a home invasion here
in Sherman Oaks. That's the latest overhead.

Speaker 1 (09:46):
I've in sky five, all right, So the fourteen hundred block,
I think what he said of it's at Sego.

Speaker 2 (09:51):
But I'm not going to get down them for that.
I grew up in that area, so I know that street.
All right, Monks is with us? How you Bob? Nice
to see you man.

Speaker 7 (09:58):
Yeah, doing better than those poor folks who at their
home invaded today.

Speaker 1 (10:01):
If it happens, A lot happens every single day in La.
So what do you say, what do you know about
last night? What are we seeing? What are the trends?
And am I right that it's over for old school Democrats?
Well it's a lot there, okay.

Speaker 7 (10:16):
And I think it was a good day for Democrats,
regardless of where you fall on the ideological spectrum, if
you're a traditional moderate Democrat, a liberal Democrat, or even
a leftist who costplays as a Democrat but it really
has other political party leanings. Sure it was a good day,
there's just no getting around it. All across the board,
up and down but the country. But was it a

(10:38):
real task?

Speaker 1 (10:38):
Because these votes came out of New Jersey blue state,
New York blue state, Virginia blue state, and California blue.

Speaker 7 (10:46):
State, Well, Virginia currently has a Republican governor, and last
time around it we'll have a democratic governor.

Speaker 1 (10:51):
But it also went for in the last presidential election,
they did not vote for Trump.

Speaker 7 (10:58):
No, and this time around they actually went more for
Abigail Spanberger. Then they went for former Vice President Kabla
Harris in any presidential election. And then what you see
here in California, what I'm saying is we haven't had
a test like in the Deep South yet. That's not
necessarily true, is that right, Hold on to your pants.
I know the jump, but juice is ready to fly

(11:19):
out of there. But if you could just give me
an extra minute. Okay, there was an obscure election in
the state of Georgia for one of their state wide
energy commissions.

Speaker 2 (11:28):
No couple of seats.

Speaker 7 (11:29):
No, it's a state wide election that had not seen
Democrats of police.

Speaker 1 (11:33):
Don't tell me that. Please, let's move on. Don't sell
me a small minute. You said there wasn't. This is
actually I'm talking about a state.

Speaker 7 (11:41):
Wide important offic was snide and Democrats won for the
first time in decades with overwhelming turnout. And I'm not
here to speak on behalf of the Democratic Party I'm
just here to.

Speaker 1 (11:51):
Tell you you're wrong. I'm telling you you're wrong. That's
not that is not a statewide you wait until it's
you know, governor or the next presidential election. This is
not some kind of phony you know, state energy board.

Speaker 7 (12:03):
You know, there's midterm elections that obviously come around in
the middle of a president's term, and those aren't even
number of years. But you do also have these odd
number yeared gubernatorial elections that pop up in places like Virginia,
New Jersey and in the middle of the next presidential term.
You'll see it in the even excuse mean the odd
numbered years as well. Obviously, people who watch politics want

(12:26):
to lick their thumbs, tick it in the air and
see whether this is any type of bellwether.

Speaker 2 (12:29):
That's unclear.

Speaker 7 (12:30):
What is clear is that yesterday was a monumental victory
for Democrats for a variety of reasons. I heard you
talking about Mamdani, who is the may elect now of
New York City, maybe being the future of the Democratic Party.
That's that's the direction they're heading in. Well, he won
with fifty one percent of the vote. That's a victory,
and he defeated a political scion, a former governor of

(12:51):
New York. This was not an easy task. He defeated
them with fifty one percent of the vote, but more
moderate Democrats carried Virginia carried New Jersey with more traditional
Democratic messaging. So it's difficult to say whether the National
Democratic Party is falling in the direction of Zoran Mumdani
or the two women who won the gubernatorial seats in

(13:13):
the East Coast.

Speaker 1 (13:14):
Okay, here's what I'm trying to say. It is going
to be difficult for the politicians on both sides, you know,
Republican and Democrat who have lined their own pockets for years.
That is coming out, you know, the Nancy Pelosi's Chuck Schumer.
I think it's over for these people. I really do.
What's over. I think their careers are coming to an end.

(13:35):
I think the new energy with that party is AOC
Mandami and those types.

Speaker 7 (13:40):
Well, I can tell you you're right about Nancy Pelosi
because there's somebody important in that conversation who agrees with
you that the career is over, and it's Nancy Pelosi
said she's not running for reelection next year.

Speaker 1 (13:49):
Yeah, And I'm feeling that she's getting out because she's smart,
and she knew that she probably would have been in
trouble for her.

Speaker 2 (13:56):
And she's like eighty seven, right.

Speaker 1 (13:57):
Yeah, But anything else that happened last night, there was
a surprise.

Speaker 7 (14:02):
Honestly, it was the margins that I think surprised everybody
because this when this Prop fifty thing was first announced
palling on, it was not overwhelmingly supportive. It was about
fifty percent. Maybe it looked like it had a fighting chance,
but it won by thirty points. And then in Virginia,
New Jersey, you saw these Democrats really run up the scoreboard, right,
and that probably wasn't California. Big f you to Donald Trump,

(14:25):
no question about it. Yeah, but that's a blue state
doing that.

Speaker 2 (14:29):
Yeah, it is nice.

Speaker 1 (14:30):
So is this going to I heard there's lawsuits. Is
that happening? Absolutely?

Speaker 7 (14:36):
The Republican Party of California is now going to try
to stop this thing. You know, there's an interesting argument here,
and perhaps courts should hear these cases. Whichever state is
doing the redistricting. There may be some legal technicality to pursue.
But we heard from the No On fifty campaign, the
losing side, about how this initiative would disenfranchise Latino voters.

(14:58):
It would it would make them weak, you know, as
a voting block. And now that is that true? Yes
on fifty has won. The lawsuit is alleging that this
was done with racial bias in support of Latinos.

Speaker 2 (15:12):
Oh is that right?

Speaker 7 (15:12):
So it's sort of a contradictory argument, and Governor Newsom
is not too impressed with that argument yet and expects
that his side will win in court. But you will
see some changes, likely in the congressional makeup. It was
already overwhelmingly democratic forty three to nine. They think that
this could cut that down by five more seats. And
here locally, you could see a couple of incumbent Republican

(15:35):
members of Congress running against each other for whatever district
they're lumped into. Now you've got some concerns from folks
in coastal Orange County that are currently represented by a
Republican who are now worried that they'll be represented by
a Democrat. So you're going to see the impacts of
this starting next year. As long as it holds.

Speaker 1 (15:53):
Yeah, I think you're going to see some really you know,
helpfully not violent, but some real revolt in some of
these communities that voted seventy nine percent against Prop fifty.

Speaker 7 (16:06):
Prop fifty was overwhelmingly supported in Orange County overall, though.

Speaker 1 (16:10):
Right, I'm talking about last and I'm talking about you
know bold, I'm talking about you know, the communities that
are northern northeastern California. The argument they went no, and
they're there are they are not going to sit quietly.

Speaker 7 (16:24):
Yeah, it's the problem with drawing maps with partisan ideologic
ideology as the motivating factor. You see it in states
across the country. You certainly do, and California had set
a standard by saying we're going to do this with
an independent commission to make these districts as fair as possible.

Speaker 2 (16:40):
What was the number in Orange County?

Speaker 7 (16:42):
I won by about fifteen points? I think, really, yeah,
I was not close.

Speaker 1 (16:47):
I've been telling Orange County for twenty five years, don't
let the crew that killed Los Angeles into Orange County,
And it looks like you have.

Speaker 5 (16:57):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on de Mayo from
KFI AM six forty.

Speaker 2 (17:02):
So who wrote that letter? I mean that note? There's
a note on the on the screen here one of
the two blinds. Wait, can you read it loudest?

Speaker 4 (17:10):
It says this is busted.

Speaker 3 (17:13):
We don't know who broke it, but the whole thing
needs to be taken.

Speaker 4 (17:17):
Down to fix. Please don't mess with it for now.

Speaker 3 (17:19):
Thanks.

Speaker 2 (17:20):
Okay, I broke it well.

Speaker 1 (17:23):
I open those when I come in because it's like
it's dark in here, and I opened them for light.
But I didn't swing on it like a jungle gym.
I simply pulled the string to open it and it fell.
You know, I didn't come in on a Saturday and say, hey,
let me see how I can f this place up.

Speaker 2 (17:41):
We can't have nice things, tim But.

Speaker 1 (17:42):
It says, you know, we don't know who broke it,
like there's an investigation.

Speaker 4 (17:47):
We don't get to the bottom of this.

Speaker 1 (17:49):
Yeah, we don't know who broke I'm telling you I did.
I did it yesterday.

Speaker 4 (17:53):
And may I say this in defense of you.

Speaker 3 (17:55):
That breaks like every other month, right, it's it's not
put together well, and you're we don't need to know
who broke it.

Speaker 2 (18:01):
It broke.

Speaker 4 (18:03):
Things break, But I do know who wrote that.

Speaker 1 (18:06):
But that that top line seems like somebody came in
and purposely broke it and then left. It's very accusatory.
It is we don't know who broke it. An odd crew.

Speaker 3 (18:17):
No, it's like it's more accusatory, like whoever you are that.

Speaker 4 (18:20):
Broke this and I broke it?

Speaker 3 (18:22):
But but then the next the the subtext to the
text is whoever broke this didn't bother to get it
fixed or to let us know if they broke it.

Speaker 2 (18:31):
And oh, I see, okay, I'm guilty on that.

Speaker 3 (18:33):
Then okay, that's what that's Okay, I know who wrote that?

Speaker 2 (18:37):
Oh you do? Yeah?

Speaker 4 (18:38):
Who wrote tell the handwriting? I'm not lay or man.

Speaker 2 (18:43):
It's definitely a woman who wrote that.

Speaker 4 (18:45):
Maybe not.

Speaker 2 (18:46):
You think that's a man's writing.

Speaker 4 (18:49):
Well, I'm not saying because then it would give away
who wrote the note.

Speaker 1 (18:52):
Okay, but I you know, I went to open it
and it but these things break like every other month.

Speaker 4 (18:59):
You know, it's very cheap, So you're not at fault.

Speaker 2 (19:01):
I'm not saying.

Speaker 1 (19:02):
I'm just saying, it's it's odd that you know that
that The first line is let's find let's get to
the bottom of the A holder.

Speaker 4 (19:08):
May I say this?

Speaker 3 (19:10):
Someone else probably complained that it was broken, and so
the person that wrote the note is probably doing that
because somebody complained.

Speaker 2 (19:21):
Okay, odd, odd.

Speaker 4 (19:26):
It's radio tim.

Speaker 5 (19:27):
I.

Speaker 2 (19:30):
Get it. Got him mighty. It is. Its unbelievable.

Speaker 1 (19:34):
All right, We've got an update here for you on
this horrible plane crash in Kentucky. And it was yesterday
this happened. Okay, okay, this is uh well, we know
time we do wink it back. We have a rather
extensive update for you on that plane crash, the PS

(19:57):
that crashed in Louisville, Kentucky. So back update on you
on that, and hopefully we'll also get to the bottom
of the blind gate.

Speaker 2 (20:07):
Whenever this is blind blind Gate.

Speaker 5 (20:09):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am six forty.

Speaker 1 (20:15):
The story that was breaking yesterday, horrible, horrible story coming
out of Louisville, Kentucky, where a UPS plane there was
leaving Kentucky and it was going to make a non
stop flight to Hawaii. That's thirteen hours or twelve hours
and forty minutes in the air, and so you can't
imagine it had to be filled to the brim with fuel,

(20:39):
had to be every single drop that they could fit
into that gas can, into that gas tank was in
that plane. I don't know what the capacity is, but
I bet it's over ten thousand gallons and it all exploded.
It was horrible and here's an update and it was
tragic too. We had people will you know die? And

(21:02):
then there's I heard. I couldn't believe this, but I
saw some social posts online saying, oh, I wonder if
my packages were on that. You know, people are so
in this country, they're just so myopic. They just think
of themselves and they're like, oh, I wonder if my
package that was going to Hawaii was on that thing?

Speaker 2 (21:23):
Oh my god. How many people do you think actually
thought that. I bet there is very few, but.

Speaker 8 (21:29):
Really, because I would if I lived in Hawaiian and
I heard that it was about for Hawaii and I
was like, am I not going to get that T shirt?
Oh that's horrible, that's you know, Gallows humor.

Speaker 1 (21:41):
But you know what like with ups, when you send
something from Lax to Hawaii, it does go through Kentucky
and then Kentucky to Hawaii.

Speaker 8 (21:52):
And like the trailers, the tractor trailers have fell off
the boat what was it a month or so ago
and down in Nazan pedro, Yeah, all those things and
I go and I hope I didn't have anything on that.

Speaker 4 (22:04):
I think I had something on that on the on
the ship. Yeah really yeah?

Speaker 2 (22:08):
What'd you have the thongs?

Speaker 4 (22:11):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (22:12):
What?

Speaker 4 (22:13):
Yeah, that's what I had on there. Sorry, I asked
you not to talk about that. Why do you do that?

Speaker 2 (22:21):
I totally forgot.

Speaker 4 (22:22):
I know you always forget when I tell you. Please
don't repeat this.

Speaker 2 (22:26):
I do apologize, sincerely apologize.

Speaker 4 (22:30):
We'll see. All right, let's move on.

Speaker 1 (22:33):
Okay, Well, at least people know you're you know what
what what?

Speaker 4 (22:38):
What?

Speaker 2 (22:40):
What? I don't know?

Speaker 4 (22:41):
No, no, what.

Speaker 2 (22:43):
You're alive.

Speaker 4 (22:44):
That's what that means.

Speaker 2 (22:46):
You're still living. You're still breathing. But I still you're alive.

Speaker 4 (22:51):
Sport those I was talking about your shoes me too.
What were you thinking? I was thinking your slides, your thoughts?

Speaker 1 (22:58):
Yeah, yeah, okay, but I guess people do think about that.

Speaker 5 (23:04):
Man.

Speaker 2 (23:04):
I thought that was odd.

Speaker 1 (23:05):
Maybe you know, Bellio is concerned about you know, so
when that chip tipped over in Sampedro, I bet there
may have been a lot of people like, hey, is
my crap on that boat?

Speaker 2 (23:14):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (23:16):
I didn't think it at the time.

Speaker 3 (23:17):
I was just concerned for you know, what you would
be concerned about, right, But it's been like a month
and so I'm starting to think hmm.

Speaker 2 (23:26):
Oh, I see. Can we ask what you ordered? Or
have we gone through that?

Speaker 4 (23:32):
We've gone through that.

Speaker 2 (23:33):
Okay, all right, let's get back to this horrible plane crash.

Speaker 9 (23:36):
The NTSP says it has recovered the cockpit black box,
which has suffered some heat damage, but it is built
to withstand something like this. Once they're able to get
the recording over to their lab in DC, it'll give
them a better understanding of what was happening before and
during the flight bystanders watching in horror as the left

(23:57):
engine on this ups cargo plane detached and catches fire
during takeoff. The National Transportation Safety Board says the plane
was able to clear a fence, but ultimately collided into
nearby businesses and erupted into a fiery trail of debris
and destruction, with a debris.

Speaker 2 (24:16):
Field a half mile long.

Speaker 6 (24:17):
We were still making the determination of exactly where and
what parts of the airplane and where they're at.

Speaker 9 (24:24):
The md Elevid was headed for Honolulu, and because of
the long trip, it was filled with roughly thirty eight
thousand gallons of fuel.

Speaker 2 (24:31):
Three crew.

Speaker 1 (24:32):
So I was wrong, So I said maybe ten to
twelve thousand, thirty eight thousand gallons of not you know,
high test, not unleaded, not regular jet fuel. Thirty eight
thousand gallons of jet fuel. Wow.

Speaker 9 (24:51):
The md Elevid was headed for Honolulu, and because of
the long trip, it was filled with roughly thirty eight
thousand gallons of fuel.

Speaker 4 (24:58):
Three crew members were on board.

Speaker 9 (25:00):
Eleven people lost their lives, with the death toll rising.

Speaker 4 (25:03):
One of the victims is believed to be a child.

Speaker 10 (25:06):
I believe by this afternoon we'll have a pretty good
grasp of both the number of fatalities and if there
are any, the number of missing persons that we're still
looking for.

Speaker 9 (25:19):
Louisville is home to UPS's Global air Hub, a five
million square foot sorting facility which sits in between two
of the airport's main runways.

Speaker 2 (25:28):
The odds are very high that it was instantaneous.

Speaker 9 (25:31):
Aviation expert Robert Levy says on board the plane, alarms
were probably going off and lights flashing to indicate fire.

Speaker 6 (25:39):
Most likely they did not have time to declare an
emergency or as we see internationally, may day, may day,
may day.

Speaker 4 (25:47):
I don't think they had time to do that.

Speaker 9 (25:49):
And flights are resuming according to the airport's website, but
there's a major backlog from delayed flights on Tuesday and
only one usable runway at the moment in the new
cent Or. I'm Rachel Menotov KTLA News.

Speaker 2 (26:02):
Well, that's horrible.

Speaker 1 (26:03):
That is absolutely worl thirty eight thousand gallons of jet
fuel and there was originally a story coming out that
it may have hit an airline fuel depot, and if
that's true, then that's another could be another couple hundred
thousand gallons, and that's probably why that fire was burning

(26:24):
late into the evening. As much water as they put
on that fire, it didn't seem to have much effect.
Initially there were explosions going on, and that's a really
really bad deal. But it's and what people hate about
something like that is, you know, you always wonder what

(26:47):
that's like like if I don't know if you've ever
had you know, a family member or friend, you know,
when you're in radical turbulence on a plane and everyone
freaks out and then you survive, you know, because it
was just turbulence. But to have that come to a
conclusion where everybody you know dies and the whole plane crashes,
that has got to be one of the worst ways

(27:09):
to go like that. Flight eight hundred. I think it
was flight eight hundred out of New York that was
bound for Paris. It was twa flight eight hundred where
the nose cone was blown off it and that plane
was in the middle of ascending, so the front of

(27:30):
the plane was blown off, and that plane still went up.
It was ascending. It was still going up for another
thirty seconds with five hundred mile an hour wind coming
through that plane. I mean, just the panic on everybody
on board. I imagine though at one point you think
this has got to.

Speaker 2 (27:50):
Be a dream.

Speaker 1 (27:51):
There's no way this is true. And maybe that's, you know,
the last thought they'd had before they went. But it's
just gruesome to think about, how, you know, what a
to go out like that?

Speaker 2 (28:01):
Oh my god.

Speaker 1 (28:03):
All right, we'll give you updates. If there's any more
news about fatalities, will.

Speaker 2 (28:07):
Have that for you.

Speaker 1 (28:08):
But what a real horrible scene there in Kentucky.
