A very detailed surveillance video from a toll booth may shed more light on the 12 November crash of American Airlines flight 587 headed from New York to the Dominican Republic.

According to reports published in Time magazine, the toll booth camera captured the entire incident involving the Airbus A300-600 crashing into a residential area in Queens, New York.

National Transportation Safety Board analysts are reportedly optimistic that the newly discovered footage will provide more clues as to how the aircraft began to break apart and how its tail section separated from the body of the aircraft, reported The Associated Press.
