At least 15 people were killed and a dozen vehicles damaged in the incident in Bolivia<\/strong><\/p>\n

A military cargo aircraft carrying large quantities of newly printed cash crashed onto a busy highway near Bolivia\u2019s administrative capital late Friday, killing at least 15 people and triggering chaotic scenes as banknotes were scattered across the crash site.<\/p>\n

The Lockheed C-130 Hercules transport plane, operated by the Bolivian Air Force, lost control and skidded off the runway while attempting to land amid poor weather conditions in the city of El Alto, adjacent to La Paz. Local media reported<\/a> the aircraft was transporting the currency from the country\u2019s central bank to regional cities.<\/p>\n

The aircraft struck multiple vehicles after leaving airport grounds before its debris came to rest in a nearby field, Fire Chief Pavel Tovar told reporters. At least a dozen vehicles were damaged, with burned wreckage and bodies reportedly scattered along the roadway.<\/p>\n

Emergency responders extinguished flames engulfing the aircraft while rescuers searched damaged cars for survivors. Authorities have not yet clarified whether the fatalities were passengers aboard the plane or motorists caught in the crash.<\/p>\n

Police and emergency crews reportedly used water hoses and riot-control measures to disperse people attempting to approach the crash zone as investigators secured the area.<\/p>\n

Other images broadcast by television stations showed extensive structural damage to the aircraft\u2019s fuselage and crushed civilian vehicles lining the avenue.<\/p>\n

Operations at El Alto International Airport were temporarily suspended following the incident. Authorities have launched an investigation into the cause of the crash, focusing on weather conditions and possible mechanical failure shortly after takeoff.<\/p>\n
