A Delta Air Lines flight from Minneapolis crashed and overturned while landing at Toronto Pearson Airport on Monday afternoon, with photos showing the plane with its belly up. 

Delta Flight 4819 crashed while landing around 2:45 p.m. local time, Federal Aviation Administration officials said in a statement, as powerful gusts of wind and drifting snow were reported in the area.

The flight was operated by Endeavor Airlines, a Delta Air Lines regional airliner.

All 80 people onboard were evacuated, the Federal Aviation Administration said, with 19 people treated for injuries – and three of them transported to local hospitals – following the crash.

A child, about four years old, was transported to The Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto.

“Those three were critical, non-life-threatening injuries,” Peel Regional Paramedic Services Superintendent Lawrence Saindon told Fox News Digital. “The remaining ones are all walking wounded, with cuts and scrapes, nothing serious at all.”

Delta Air Lines released a statement regarding the incident.

“Several customers with injuries were transported to area hospitals. Our primary focus is taking care of those impacted,” they said.

“Delta is working to connect with customers traveling from, to or through YYZ who should also monitor the status of their flight via the Fly Delta app,” Delta’s statement continued, using the airport’s IATA code to refer to the Toronto airline.

“Several customers with injuries were transported to area hospitals. Our primary focus is taking care of those impacted,” it said.

5:00p EST

Toronto Pearson Airport resumed accepting air traffic, the airport said in a statement on X.

“Departures and arrivals have resumed at Toronto Pearson as of 5 p.m.,” it said.

Fox News Digital’s Christopher Guly and Andrea Margolis contributed to this report.
