A private plane owned by Vince Neil, the main singer of Mötley Crüe, participated in a fatal accident on Monday afternoon at Scottsdale airport in Arizona.
The authorities say that a person was killed and three were injured when the landing train on the Neil plane failed, which caused him to detach himself from the track and crashed into a larger plane.
The plane is registered in Chromed in Hollywood, INC, a Wyoming -based company, which lists Neil as its director, according to the records reviewed by Fox News Digital.
A Neil lawyer confirmed to Azfamily that he was not on the plane.
