The crash left debris and burnt out vehicles strewn across up to six different blocks areas just days on from the Washington DC aviation disaster.
Mayor Cherelle Parker confirmed in a statement on Saturday all on board had died, including the girl, her mother, a doctor, paramedic, pilot and co-pilot.
The child had been in recovery after a major procedure back in September and was heading home to Mexico on the medical transport jet, according to The Telegraph.
Lizeth Murillo Ozuna, 31, has now also been named as Valentina’s mom.
Also killed in the crash were Captain Alan Alejandro Montoya Perales, Copilot Josue de Jesus Juarez Juarez, Dr. Raul Meza Arredondo and paramedic Rodrigo Lopez Padilla.
Mayor Parker also said a driver on the ground was killed when the plane smashed into a road – with dozens left injured.
Everyone on board the flight was from Mexico with the jet’s final destination being Tijuana.
Terrifying dashcam footage showed the plane falling from the sky in a streak of white.
A bright orange fireball erupts into the sky and lights up the night following the deadly impact.
It is said to have hit several buildings as it descended into a residential neighborhood near a mall and a busy intersection just after 6pm on Friday.
The Learjet 55 had taken off less than a minute earlier from Northeast Philadelphia Airport before it plunged to the ground, the FAA said.
It was due to stop in Springfield-Branson National Airport, Missouri.
One eyewitness told local news site WPVI the crash was “horrific” and said it was “Earthquak-ish.”
They said: “I was just driving down the street, coming to Wendy’s and I just saw a plane basically hit the building and it exploded.
“The sky light up and I pulled over and basically, it was just real bad around here. It lit up the whole sky.”
