One of two pilots on a private jet owned by Mötley Crüe singer Vince Neil died after the aircraft veered off a runway in Arizona and hit a business jet, according to a Federal Aviation Administration incident report.

The landing gear on the private jet appeared to have failed, sending it crashing into the other jet Monday afternoon, said Kelli Kuester, aviation planning and outreach coordinator at Scottsdale Airport. Another pilot and two passengers aboard Neil's plane were seriously injured, the FAA report said.
