“Toronto Pearson is aware of an incident upon landing involving a Delta Airlines plane arriving from Minneapolis. Emergency teams are responding. All passengers and crew are accounted for,” the airport said in a statement.
Paramedics told CP24 that up to eight people were injured, while the Association of Flight Attendants confirmed that there’s been no fatalities.
“Our union is responding to an incident in Toronto with Delta Air Lines Endeavor Flight 4819,” a statement read.
“AFA crew were working this flight. Reports are there are no fatalities.
“Please do not speculate on this incident as everyone works to gather information and support those involved.”
The New York Post has reported that flight records show the aircraft happened to be a Mitsubishi CRJ-900LR.

“There is a plane crash. However, we don’t know the circumstances surrounding it at this point,” added Constable Sarah Patten of the Peel Regional Police in Ontario.
“It is my understanding that most of the passengers are out and unharmed but we’re still trying to make sure so we’re still on scene investigating,” Ms Patten said.
This is the first major incident involving a commercial passenger plane since an American Airlines passenger jet collided mid-air with a US army helicopter and landed in the Potomac river on 29 January.
The Bombardier CRJ700 had departed from Wichita, Kansas, and was landing into Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport in Washington DC.
Footage showed that the plane collided with a Sikorsky H-60, which had taken off from Fort Belvoir in Virginia, with a US army official confirming to NBC News that the helicopter had been participating in a training flight.
There were 64 passengers on board the plane and three army soldiers in the helicopter. No one survived.
President Donald Trump said it ‘looks like’ the collision ‘should have been prevented’.
He posted on social media platform Truth Social: “The airplane was on a perfect and routine line of approach to the airport.
“The helicopter was going straight at the airplane for an extended period of time. It is a CLEAR NIGHT, the lights on the plane were blazing, why didn’t the helicopter go up or down, or turn.
“Why didn’t the control tower tell the helicopter what to do instead of asking if they saw the plane. This is a bad situation that looks like it should have been prevented. NOT GOOD!!!”
