Video from a firefighter’s helmet camera following the crash landing of an Asiana Airlines flight in San Francisco shows rescuers were aware someone was on the ground outside the plane, before a fire truck struck and killed her.
KPIX-TV aired parts of the footage last night.
In the video, a firefighter with a helmet camera tells the driver of a fire truck that there’s a person in front of him.
A fire truck-mounted camera shows a firefighter directing the truck away from 16-year-old Ye Meng Yuan.
Yuan was one of three Chinese teens who died.
The San Francisco Chronicle first reported on the video’s content.
KPIX reports the video was obtained from a person close to the girl’s family.
