A passenger on board Air Canada Express Flight 8646, which collided with a fire truck on a taxiway at LaGuardia Airport in New York, has recounted the terrifying moments following the crash.
The crash left at least two Port Authority cops seriously injured, according to sources, the New York Post reported.
The passenger, identified as Brady, said, "I'm okay (physically) but I'm horribly sick to my stomach for the lives lost. Please pray for them."
Brady also shared photos of the damaged aircraft.
Emergency vehicles were seen swarming Runway 4 at the Queens airport after a regional jet en route from Montreal struck a rescue truck responding to a separate incident, according to the Port Authority Police Department, the FDNY, and footage captured by the Citizen App.
The crash took place just before 11:40 pm.
The injured cops work on the Port Authority Police Department’s Aircraft Rescue Fire Fighter Unit, according to the New York Post.
The unit is staffed by police to respond to aircraft emergencies, sources said, per the outlet.
