Upon landing in the city of Halifax, Nova Scotia the Air Canada passenger jet slid off the runway and injured 23 people. The airline said all those on board the flight managed to exit the plane, but the 23 people injured were taken to local hospitals after sustaining “non-life threatening injuries.” In a statement the airline said, “Eighteen passengers of the 23 passengers and crew admitted to area hospitals for observation and treatment of minor injuries have been released from hospital…Air Canada will be cooperating fully with authorities in their investigation.” A team of investigators were sent to the Halifax airport to investigate the incident. The plane’s wing on the right side appears to be very heavily damaged.
