The United States scrambled F-16 fighter jets in a supersonic chase of a light aircraft that violated airspace in the Washington D.C. area with an unresponsive pilot and later crashed into mountainous terrain in southwest Virginia, officials said.
The fighter jets prompted a sonic boom over the U.S. capital, causing consternation among people in Washington area, in an attempt to catch up with the errant Cessna Citation, officials said.
No survivors were found after the private jet carrying four people crashed in Virginia, according to police.
