Default DC-9 runs into parked Airbus at MSP tonight

Planes Collide At Twin Cities International

Six people were hospitalized tonight after two Northwest airplanes collided
on the ground at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport.

A DC-nine landed at the airport around 7:45 tonight. But hydraulic problems
caused the pilot to lose control of the aircraft and slide into an airbus
parked near a gate.

There was no immediate word on the condition of those hospitalized.

The DC-nine clipped the wing of the airbus and slid under the tail section
of the plane. The airbus's wing punctured the cockpit of the DC-nine.

The passengers on both airplanes were evacuated and emergency crews were on
the scene, cleaning up spilled fuel and tending to passengers.
