Learjet down over Germany after collision with Eurofighter

A Learjet carrying 2 people went down over a rural area in central Germany after it apparently collided with a Eurofighter operated by German Luftwaffe. The Learjet wreck was found burning on a field near the small town of Olsberg.

A spokesperson for Luftwaffe confirmed the collision. The fighter jet and an accompanying Eurofighter made it back to a Luftwaffe base near Cologne.

No information yet on the fate of the Learjet's pilot and passenger.

Developing.
