Four killed as passenger jet overshoots airport runway in Moscow and breaks up as it crashes into main road

At least four Russians died today when a passenger airliner overshot a runway and broke into pieces at a Moscow airport. Officials said up to eight people were on board the Tupolev-204 - flight number RWZ9268 - as it rolled off the runway at Vnukovo airport and burst through a perimeter fence onto a highway. State television news channel Vesti showed a photo of the wrecked plane's fuselage with the livery of the low-cost Russian Red Wings airline. Its nose, including the cockpit area, appeared sheared off.
