Miami - Authorities say no one was injured when two
commercial jets collided near the gates at Miami International Airport.
Airport spokesperson Marc Henderson told The Miami Herald on Thursday that one plane had a damaged wingtip and
the other sustained damage on the tail section.
The collision happened between Concourses J and H as an
incoming Aerolineas Argentinas Airbus with 240 passengers aboard struck an Air
France 777-300 plane preparing to leave for Paris with 350 passengers on board.
Henderson says rescue crews quickly surrounded both
planes.
The Herald reports the passengers arriving from Argentina
were allowed to get off the plane at the gate.
The passengers heading to France had to pick up their
luggage and wait in long lines to reschedule their flights.
An investigation is under way.
