Three people have been left with critical injuries from a plane crash at a major Canadian airport, authorities say.

The Delta Air Lines commuter plane arriving from Minneapolis crashed at Canada’s Toronto Pearson Airport on Monday (Tuesday AEDT), according to the US Federal Aviation Administration, with images of the incident showing the aircraft flipped upside down.

In an update, Peel Regional Paramedic Services in Toronto says 15 people have been injured in the incident.

The critically injured include one child and two adults.

The other injuries range from minor to moderate. All crew and passengers have been accounted for.

Emergency services say there were about 80 people on board, reports CityNews Toronto.

Delta Air Lines Flight 4819, operated by Endeavor Air, crashed while landing at Toronto Pearson International Airport in Canada around 2:45 p.m. local time,” the airport said in a statement said, noting the aircraft had departed from Minneapolis/St. Paul International Airport.

A photo posted on X shows the airport flipped on its roof on the airport’s icy runway.

Airport staff told CTV News that all arrivals and departures at Pearson were shut down.

According to the US Federal Aviation Authority, all runways at the airport are closed.

Endeavor Air is a wholly owned subsidiary and regional airline for Delta.

The crash comes less than three weeks after an American Airlines plane collided midair with a US Army Black Hawk helicopter while on approach to Washington DC’s Reagan National Airport.

It also comes on the heels of deadly Jeju Air and Azerbaijan Airlines accidents in December.
