No Survivors Found After Plane Crashes in Virginia; Fighter Jet Response Causes Sonic Boom Across DC Area

NBC News reported that the Cessna Citation belongs to John Rumpel from Melbourne, Florida. Rumpel said his daughter, granddaughter, nanny and their pilot were all on board.

Fighter jets caused a sonic boom heard and felt throughout the D.C. area after they were scrambled from Joint Base Andrews to intercept a Cessna jet that flew over the District on Sunday, multiple government sources say. News4's Mauricio Casillas reports., a couple in Fairfax, Virginia, were recording a song when they captured the boom. Their expressions turned to shock as they got up at the sound.

D.C. Homeland Security and Emergency Management said the department was “aware of reports from communities throughout the National Capital Region of a loud ‘boom’ this afternoon. There is no threat at this time.”
