Delta flight crashes at Toronto airport, all expected to survive

A Delta flight crashed while landing at Toronto Pearson International Airport on Monday and the plane was seen upside-down on the snow-covered ground.

Fifteen people, including one child, have been taken to hospitals, but none of the injuries are considered to be life-threatening, according to Peel Regional Paramedic Services.

Ornge, which provides medical transport, said three people suffered critical injuries: one child, a man in his 60s and a woman in her 40s.

The other 12 people taken to hospitals have mild injuries, Peel Regional Paramedics Services said.

The 76 passengers and four crew on board Flight 4819 have been evacuated following the single-aircraft accident, according to Delta and the Federal Aviation Administration. The flight originated in Minneapolis.

“Our primary focus is taking care of those impacted,” Delta said in a statement.

What caused the plane to flip and catch fire was not immediately clear but the investigation is already underway, sources told ABC News. The Transportation Safety Board of Canada will lead the investigation, the FAA said.

The Toronto Airport is closed until at least 4:30 p.m. Montréal-Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport said it’s preparing to receive diverted flights from Toronto.

While the cause is unknown, the crash unfolded during blowing snow and strong wind gusts in the region. Winds reached 40 mph on the ground and were even stronger several hundred feet in the air.

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz said he’s in touch with Delta.

“Grateful to the first responders and professionals on the scene,” he wrote on social media.
