Written by Teunis Felter

Seventy-five people, including most of Brazil’s Chapecoense soccer team, died when their plane crashed just before landing near Colombia’s second largest city Medellin. Six survived the crash. The airplane crashed late Monday evening in a rural part of La Union, a municipality some 13 miles south of the international airport located outside of Medellin’s urban area.
