Video showed thick smoke billowing from the blue and white Boeing 767 that had arrived around 2 pm (1800 GMT) from Puerto Rico, as fire trucks raced to the scene.

There was no immediate word on casualties in the incident reported by the Federal Aviation Administration and Miami International Airport.

The Miami-Dade Fire Department said the plane operating as Prime Air Flight 7598 caught fire as a result of what it called a crash.

"Firefighters are working on extinguishing the fire and assessing patients," it said on X.

The department said the plane overran a runway and hit multiple vehicles near the airport. More than 60 firefighters rushed to the scene, it said.

The airport said all its runways and taxiways have been shut down because of the accident.
