No fatalities after Delta plane flips in Toronto. Extreme cold prompts school closures
Manage episode 467254613 series 1451986
A Delta Air Lines jet from Minneapolis flipped on its roof while landing Monday at Toronto’s Pearson Airport. All 80 people on board survived and those hurt had relatively minor injuries, according to airport officials. Snow was being blown by winds gusting up to 40 miles per hour at the time of the crash.
Today’s dangerously cold temperatures prompted many school districts across Minnesota to cancel or delay the start of classes, or move to online learning. Minneapolis and St. Paul public schools canceled classes Tuesday. Other districts closed Tuesday include Brainerd, Mankato, Rochester, St. Cloud and Winona.
Around 100 people gathered for a vigil Monday night at the Minnesota Capitol for a transgender Minnesota man who was found dead in New York. Five people there now face murder charges in the killing of Sam Nordquist, a 24-year-old from Oakdale.
This is an MPR News morning update hosted by Phil Picardi. Music by Gary Meister.
