The FBI has written to passengers who were aboard a Boeing aircraft that suffered a midair blowout to tell them they may be victims of a crime, US media reported Friday.
The move comes after the Department of Justice earlier this month announced it was opening a criminal investigation into the near-catastrophic incident on January 5, when a panel blew off the fuselage of an Alaska Airlines operated plane mid-flight.
No one was seriously hurt, but the 737 MAX 9 had to make an emergency landing, with footage showing the terrifying scene as passengers sat next to the gaping hole.
