Dramatic video has been released showing the moment a speeding private jet owned by Vince Neil – the lead singer of Mötley Crüe – veers off a runway in Scottsdale Airport in Arizona and smashed into a parked plane.

The harrowing footage shows Neil’s plane after it touched down on a runway at around 2:45 p.m. local time after its landing gear failed. 

The Learjet 35A can be seen traveling at high speed, skidding along the tarmac with its nose pressed against the concrete before it careens off the runway and then barrels towards a bigger parked private jet, an Israel Aircraft Industries Gulfstream 200.

Scottsdale Fire Capt. Dave Folio said a person was trapped in Neil’s jet after the crash, but rescuers were able to free them from the wreckage. The person was transferred to a trauma center in critical condition.

“Our thoughts and prayers are going out to everybody in the aviation community that this affects today,” Kelli Kuester, Aviation outreach and planning coordinator for the Scottsdale Airport said.

The two aircraft were separated by rescue crews later on Monday. Images from the scene show the cockpit area of the Learjet almost completely caved in on its left-hand side with a red tarp placed over it. 

A set of wheels belonging to the Learjet could be seen around 100 yards away, per Fox 10 Phoenix.  

Eyewitness Gordan Johnson, who has worked for 35 years in aviation, told the outlet that he saw the front landing gear collapse and then watched the jet slide off the runway to the left.

The plane was coming from Austin, Texas, when it crashed. The jet is registered to Chromed in Hollywood, Inc – a Wyoming-based company – that lists Neil as its director, according to records reviewed by Fox News Digital.

The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) said it is investigating the crash.

Scottsdale Airport announced the runway was closed following the crash but reopened at around 10:40 p.m. on Monday.

Officials said airport operations staff and emergency personnel from a Scottsdale fire station responded to the scene within one minute of the collision.
