Asiana: Student Killed 'When Hit By Vehicle'

One of the victims of the San Francisco Asiana plane crash was killed when she was hit by a vehicle, a coroner has confirmed.

Ye Mengyuan, a 16-year-old Chinese student, died of multiple blunt injuries that are consistent with being run over by a motor vehicle, the coroner said, releasing the findings of a post-mortem examination.

Authorities confirmed last week that the teenager was hit by a vehicle racing to extinguish flames that broke out on the Boeing 777.

Police said she was on the ground and covered in fire-retardant foam that rescuers had sprayed on the wreckage.

 Asiana Flight 214 collided with a rocky seawall just short of its intended airport runway on July 6.

Three people died, and another 180 were injured 

Investigators have said the plane came in too low and slow.

The other victims of the crash were 16-year-old Wang Linjia of China, who was already dead when airport staff found her near the runway, and a child, also Chinese, who died in a San Francisco hospital several days later.
