PARIS (AP) — French prosecutors say the second black box recorder from the Germanwings jet crash in the French Alps has been found.
An official in Marseille Prosecutor Brice Robin's office says he will give a news conference Thursday evening about the discovery.
Based on recordings from the first black box, investigators believe co-pilot Andreas Lubitz intentionally crashed Flight 9525 on March 24.
The second black box is the data recorder and contains readings for nearly every instrument.

The co-pilot of the Germanwings jet barricaded himself in the cockpit and intentionally rammed the plane full speed into the French Alps, ignoring the captain's frantic pounding on the door and the screams of terror from passengers, a prosecutor said Thursday.
