A cargo plane crashed while landing in Miami on Sunday. Photos from the scene show smoke rising from the plane.

The plane ran off the runway at Miami International Airport, the FAA announced.

The plane is on what looks like a grassy slope next to a road inside the airport area and has caught fire.

According to the Miami Fire Department, the plane hit a large number of cars before ending up on the grassy slope.

There are no reports of injuries.

The plane, a Boeing 767, came from Puerto Rico and was carrying goods for Amazon, according to CNN.

All runways at the airport are closed, the television channel reports.
