Montreal, March 29
An Air Canada jet came off the runway after landing at Halifax’s main airport in Nova Scotia today, sending at least 23 persons to hospital, officials said.
The airline said earlier on Twitter that flight AC624 from Toronto “exited runway upon landing at Halifax.” It did not say what caused the Airbus A320 to leave the runway after landing at Stanfield International Airport around 12:43 am (local time) today.
The airline reported 23 people were harmed, though Halifax airport spokesman Peter Spurway said 25 people were taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries. — AFP
