A Learjet 35A owned by Mötley Crüe frontman Vince Neil collided with another jet Monday at Scottsdale Airport in Arizona, leaving one dead and three injured. Neil was not on the jet at the time of the crash.

The Learjet’s landing gear malfunctioned upon landing, causing it to veer off the runway and crash into a Gulfstream 200 business jet, owned by actor Vince Vaughn, according to MSN. Airpot officials believe an issue with the main left landing gear led to the Learjet’s diverted course.

Neil’s longtime girlfriend, Rain Andreani, was among the injured in the crash, suffering five broken ribs. Andreani’s friend and the jet’s co-pilot were also injured in the crash, while the pilot was tragically killed. Scottsdale fire officials confirm the pilot was dead upon arrival, according to WNEM 5. One person was occupying the Gulfstream at the time of the crash and refused treatment. One person was listed in stable condition, while two others were listed in critical at a local hospital.

“At 2:39 p.m. local time, a Learjet aircraft Model 35A owned by Vince Neil was attempting to land at the Scottsdale Airport,” Neil’s representative Worrick Robinson said in a statement posted on the band’s social media accounts. “For reasons unknown at this time, the plane veered from the runway causing it to collide with another parked plane. On board Mr. Neil’s plane were two pilots and two passengers. Mr. Neil was not on the plane.”

“More specific details regarding the collision are not available as this is a rapidly evolving situation and there is an ongoing investigation,” Worrick said in a statement. “Mr. Neil’s thoughts and prayers go out to everyone involved, and he is grateful for the critical aid of all first responders assisting today.”

The airport has been closed by the FAA without any indication as to when flights will resume.

Mötley Crüe is looking for ways they can help the victims’ families, according to their manager Allen Kovac.
