Asiana crash: rescue vehicles run over teen

 The teenager, who was thrown from the Asiana Airways aircraft that crash-landed at San Francisco International Airport this month, was run over and killed by rescue vehicles, officials reported.
16 year-old student Ye Mengyuan from China sustained multiple blunt trauma “consistent with being run over by a motor vehicle,” San Mateo County coroner Robert Foucrault told reporters, according to ABC News.
A forensic examination revealed that Ms Mengyuan was alive when she was hit on the runway.
“My understanding is that she was not standing up,” San Francisco fire chief Joanne Hayes-White said.
“She was on the ground when our rigs, one rig or possibly two, made contact with her.”
Asiana Airlines Flight 214 from Shanghai was carrying 291 passengers and 16 crew members when it crashed on the runway at San Francisco International Airport on 6 July and burst into flames.
So far, three people have died as a result of the crash.
Investigators continue to analyse the cause of the incident.
