Delta jet aborts takeoff from snowy Atlanta airport after engine problem
Four passengers have been injured after a Delta Air Lines jet at the Atlanta airport aborted its takeoff for a flight to Minneapolis. Delta spokesperson Morgan Durrant said the plane had an engine problem. The incident happened Friday while a snowstorm was causing widespread cancellations and delays in Atlanta, the world’s busiest airport. But officials can't say if the problem had anything to do with the weather. The 201 passengers, two pilots and five flight attendants aboard evacuated the Boeing 757-300 using inflatable slides and were bused back to a concourse. One of the injured passengers was taken to a hospital, while three were treated at the airport for minor injuries.
