Fuel truck has a "fender bender" with a Delta Air Lines plane at Laguardia Airport



No injuries were reported after a fuel truck clipped a Delta Air Lines plane at New York's Laguardia Airport Sunday, a Delta spokesperson said. The airline says all 106 passengers aboard flight 2879 were sitting down and the plane wasn't moving when the accident occurred.

The plane has since been removed from service and sustained wing damage. The flight, scheduled to depart for Fort Lauderdale, was canceled. According to source NY1.com, a Port Authority spokesman says the driver of the fuel truck suffered cuts to his face.
