Prominent preacher Myles Munroe is among nine people killed in a plane crash Sunday in Bahamas.

Reports by Reuters and ABC News state that the plane crashed near Grand Bahama International Airport and burst into flames, killing all passengers on board. The plane reportedly struck a crane at the Grand Bahama Ship Yard, exploding on impact and crashing into the ground near a junkyard area.

Among those killed were Dr Munroe of Bahamas Faith Ministries and his wife, Ruth.
Police source also said it was believed the group was heading to a conference hosted by Pastor Munroe.

A post on the Facebook page of an organisation led by renowned civil rights activist Andrew Young confirmed the preacher’s death.

“Ambassador Young expresses his deep sadness over the tragic death of his friends Dr Myles and Mrs Ruth Munroe. He offers condolences to the Monroe family and the families of the other souls who lost their lives as a result of this shocking plane crash,” the post read.

Dr Munroe is a well-known author and motivational speaker who visited various African countries.
