TORONTO: Eight people were injured as a plane crashed at Toronto’s Pearson Airport on Monday, with a television channel reporting the plane flipped on landing.

The Delta Air Lines plane had arrived from Minneapolis, Minnesota.

All passengers and crew were accounted for, the airport said in a statement.

Representatives for Delta did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

“There is a plane crash. However, we don’t know the circumstances surrounding it at this point,” said a police official in the state of Ontario.

“It is my understanding that most of the passengers are out and unharmed, but we’re still trying to make sure so we’re still on scene investigating,” he added.
