A Delta Air Lines flight reportedly crashed at an airport in Toronto on Monday afternoon, according to officials and videos posted online.

“Toronto Pearson is aware of an incident upon landing involving a Delta Airlines plane arriving from Minneapolis,” Toronto Pearson International Airport said in a statement. “Emergency teams are responding. All passengers and crew are accounted for.”

FlightRadar24, a flight tracking website, said that the plane that crashed was Delta flight 4819 from Minneapolis to Toronto. The plane was a CRJ-900.

Videos of the accident showed that the plane was lying upside down on the tarmac and that at least part of the plane had caught on fire during the crash.

Fire crews were on scene extinguishing the fire and some passengers were seen climbing out of the plane.

Lawrence Saindon, a superintendent for Peel Regional Paramedic Services, said that at least eight people were injured during the accident, including one who was in critical condition.
