A plane owned by Mötley Crüe member Vince Neil was involved in a collision at Scottsdale Municipal Airport in Scottsdale, Ariz. Monday, leaving one person dead and four injured, two critically, officials said.

One of the planes, a Learjet, is registered to Chromed in Hollywood, Inc. based in Franklin, Tenn., which is owned by Neil, according to incorporation papers from the Wyoming Secretary of State. Neil was not on the plane at the time.

The band released a statement on social media about the matter, from Neil’s legal representative: “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. 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.”

“A Learjet 35A veered off the runway after landing and crashed into a Gulfstream 200 business jet on the ramp at Scottsdale Municipal Airport in Arizona around 2:45 p.m. local time Monday, Feb. 10 … The FAA is temporarily pausing flights into the airport,” the agency said in a statement.

The left main landing gear of the Learjet failed upon landing, according to the FAA.

Scottsdale Fire says the plane that was struck was parked on private property.

Fire officials say one person died and three others were taken to hospitals for treatment of their injuries. Two are in critical condition. A fourth person was injured but declined to go to a hospital. One individual was trapped in the plane after the crash for an extended period of time.

According to Flight Aware, per WTVF in Nashville, Tenn., the flight plan for the plane was not a public record. ADS B Exchange says the flight originated from Austin, Texas Monday afternoon.

The Scottsdale collision comes after three major U.S. aviation disasters in the past two weeks. A Black Hawk helicopter collided with a commercial American Airlines flight in Washington, D.C., killing 67 people Jan. 29. Two days later, a medical transport plane crashed in Philadelphia, sending homes into flames and resulting in seven deaths — six of those on board and another individual on the ground. Last week, a small commuter plane was thought to be missing in western Alaska before being found en route to Nome, having crash landed on sea ice and killing the 10 people on board.
