A Delta Airlines plane with 80 on board, on Monday, crash landed at the Toronto Pearson International Airport in Canada and left 18 persons injured with no casualties.
The plane was carrying 76 passengers and 4 crew members.
The Delta Airlines flight, operated by Endeavor Air, was coming from Minneapolis’ St. Paul International Airport and was destined to land at Ontario’s Toronto Pearson International Airport.
It is yet to be determined what caused the plane to crash, however, the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) said that investigation will be carried out by the Transportation Safety Board of Canada.
Meanwhile, the 18 injured passengers have been transported to local hospitals, the airport’s Fire Chief Todd Aitken said during a news conference on Monday.
The incident comes less than three weeks after an American Airlines plane collided midair with a US Army Black Hawk helicopter while on approach to Washington DC’s Reagan National Airport, and on the heels of deadly Jeju Air and Azerbaijan Airlines accidents in December.
