              US Plane Crash Kills 7, Including Newspaper Co-owner

   by VOA News

   All seven people aboard a private business jet have been killed in a
   late-night crash in the United States, including the co-owner of the
   Philadelphia Inquirer newspaper.

   Authorities said the plane crashed in a ball of fire late Saturday as
   it took off from an airfield outside the northeastern city of Boston,
   Massachusetts.  There was no immediate explanation for the accident,
   but U.S. authorities are investigating.

   Among those killed was Lewis Katz, a 72-year-old businessman. Katz,
   along with a co-investor, last week bought controlling interest in the
   Philadelphia newspaper for $88 million.

   Katz made his fortune investing in a parking empire and a cable sports
   television network in New York.  He is a former owner of professional
   basketball and hockey teams in the U.S.
