Airline officials said US Airways Flight 1702 was heading to Fort Lauderdale, Florida, when the pilot was forced to abort take off around 6:30 pm yesterday after the front landing gear collapsed.
The Airbus 320 plane was carrying 149 passengers and five crew, airport spokeswoman Victoria Lupica said. All were rescheduled on departing flights last night, she said.
One passenger asked for medical assistance after the crash but no serious injuries were reported, she said.
Three of the airports four runways were reopened within a few hours after the crash, with only the runway where the accident occurred remaining closed, Lupica said.
