A Delta Airlines jet flipped upside down upon landing at the snow-capped runway of Toronto Pearson Airport in Canada on Monday following a snowstorm, injuring 19 of the 80 people onboard and sparking panic among passengers.
The airport confirmed on X that an “incident” occurred with the Delta flight from Minneapolis and that all 80 passengers and crew are accounted for. Three of the eight people hurt are critically injured, paramedics said.
