STORY: CCTV footage captured the moment a UPS wide-body cargo plane crashed on Tuesday (November 4) and erupted into a fireball moments after takeoff from the international airport in Louisville, Kentucky, killing seven, including all three aboard, and injuring 11 on the ground.

Flames from the crash, shortly before sundown, ignited a string of fires in an industrial corridor adjacent to the airport, forcing authorities to halt flight operations through the night, the officials said.

In a Tuesday night service alert, UPS said delivery schedules for airborne and international packages "may be affected" by the disruption.

Reuters was able to independently verify the location of the video by buildings, road layout, utility poles and fence which matched file images. The location of the footage also matched the business address.

Reuters was able to confirm the date of the footage from the timestamp on the surveillance footage and the flight path seen on a flight tracking website.
