Both officers were transported by the Royal Cayman Islands Police Service’s helicopter to Grand Cayman to the Health Service Authority (HSA) yesterday afternoon.

The fire truck involved in the crash was removed from the airport runway after the accident analyst completed his on-site assessment, enabling normal airport operations to resume for all smaller Cayman Airways Limited aircrafts yesterday evening.

Senior management with the Cayman Islands Fire Service (CIFS), Cayman Islands Airports Authority (CIAA) and other stake holders are in the process of identifying an interim strategy that will support the resumption of jet services at the earliest opportunity.

As the cause of the crash has yet to be determined pending the completion of the ongoing investigations, Government Information Services will continue to provide more information as it becomes available.
