1972 Puerto Rico DC-7 crash
Aviation accident
On December 31, 1972, a DC-7 cargo aircraft crashed in Carolina, Puerto Rico, killing all five people on board, including baseball legend Roberto Clemente. As a result of inadequate maintenance, the aircraft's No. 2 engine failed after takeoff. After initiating a turn to return to the airport, the aircraft eventually descended into, or attempted to ditch into the ocean a mile offshore.
