Co-pilot deliberately crashed Germanwings jetliner: French prosecutor

The co-pilot of the Germanwings A-320 appears to have deliberately crashed the aircraft killing 150 passengers and crew on board, a French prosecutor said on Thursday.

The action of first officer Andreas Lubitz "can be analysed as his intention to destroy the aircraft", prosecutor Brice Robin said at a press conference in Marseille on Thursday, Xinhua reported citing BFMTV.
