A teenager survived the Asiana Airlines crash in San Francisco only to be struck and killed by a fire vehicle rushing to fight a blaze that broke out on the plane, authorities said on Friday.

Ye Meng Yuan, 16, a Chinese student, died of multiple injuries from being run over by what officials believe was a special firetruck used to spread fire-suppressing foam.
