A US military aircraft with six people on board has crashed on the island of Yakushima in southwestern Japan. Japan's Coast Guard said one person was found dead near the crash site.
The plane's engine reportedly caught fire while trying to land at Yakushima Airport on Wednesday. Japan's defense ministry said the plane disappeared from radar at 2.40pm on Wednesday.
The Coast Guard received a call five minutes later, saying the plane had crashed. It then sent six boats and two helicopters to the scene. At 4pm, helicopters spotted what appeared to be part of the plane and a life raft, a spokesman told the BBC.
Yakushima, in Kagoshima Prefecture, is located south of Japan's Kyushu Island.
