A photographer was killed after inadvertently walking into a spinning airplane propeller while taking pictures in Kansas.

Amanda Gallagher, 37, was on a work assignment on Saturday capturing pictures of skydivers getting on and off planes in the town of Derby - less than 15 miles from Wichita - when she stepped back into the propeller of a plane that was stationary yet still running.
