A horrific incident took place at an airport in Amsterdam as a person lost his life after being sucked into a jet engine of the Cityhopper Embraer E190 plane. The incident was witnessed by passengers and ground crew.
The incident is still being looked into by the authorities, who have not yet disclosed if it was an accident or a suicide. The local authorities assisted in the safe removal of every passenger who was on board at the time of the event.
