Southwest Airlines jet skids off Chicago runway
CHICAGO (AFX) - A Southwest Airlines passenger jet skidded off the runway at
Chicago's Midway airport during a heavy snowstorm and smashed through a
fence onto a road skirting the airport, television news footage showed.
One person inside a vehicle that was struck by the airplane on the road was
injured in the incident, but it appeared that none of the passengers on the
plane were injured, local radio station WBBM reported.
Police could not immediately confirm media reports and representatives from
the airport and Southwest did not immediately return calls for comment.
