A flight tracker has recorded the moment a private plane crashed off the coast of Latvia into the Baltic Sea on Sunday, 4 September.
Four people were on board, including German businessman Karl-Peter Griesemann, according to a spokesperson for his company Quick Air.
“I can confirm that it was the private jet of our owner, Karl-Peter Griesemann,” the spokesperson said.
