Distraught family members held out hope for news of their loved ones after Monday's Lion Air plane crash in Indonesia. Relatives gathered Tuesday at the police hospital in the Kramat Jati area of Jakarta waiting for an official announcement about family members who were on flight 610, which crashed shortly after takeoff from Jakarta. Divers searched Tuesday for victims of the crash that killed 189 people as reports emerged of problems on the jet's previous flight that had terrified passengers. Search and rescue personnel worked through the night, sending 24 body bags to identification experts while the airline flew dozens of grieving relatives to Jakarta.
