Dozens of hearses take Colombia crash victims toward final flight home

Medellin, Colombia, Dec 2 (Reuters) Dozens of hearses carrying the coffins of those killed when a plane flying Brazil's Chapecoense soccer team crashed into a central Colombian mountain began leaving Medellin for the airport today to be flown home.
The disaster on Monday night killed 71 people and shocked soccer fans the world over. The LAMIA Bolivia BAe146 airliner apparently ran out of fuel, lost electrical power and was preparing for an emergency landing when it crashed.
Only six people survived, including three members of the soccer squad en route to the Copa Sudamericana final, the biggest game in its history. Video footage of players seated before takeoff showed them laughing and pulling faces at the camera.
