LA UNION, Colombia/CHAPECO, Brazil (Reuters) - Doctors treated survivors of an air crash in Colombia that killed 71 people and wiped out Brazil's Chapecoense soccer team en route to a cup final in Colombia as an investigation got underway on Wednesday.
Only six people - three players, a journalist and two crew members - survived the crash on Monday night when Chapecoense's charter plane, a BAe 146 made by BAE Systems Plc, hit a mountain en route to their Copa Sudamericana showdown in Medellin.
All were being treated at local hospitals.
Of the players, goalkeeper Jackson Follmann was recovering from the amputation of his right leg, doctors said.
