Authorities are currently investigating a recent crash that occurred at Toronto Pearson Airport, as confirmed by the airport's fire chief during a news conference on Monday night. The cause of the crash is still unknown and is being actively investigated by the Transportation Safety Board. Airport Fire Chief Todd Aitken emphasized that it is not appropriate to speculate on the cause at this time.
As a result of the ongoing investigation, two runways at the airport will remain closed. The airport's CEO stated earlier on Monday that these runways will be unavailable for use until officials complete their examination of the crash site.
The incident has raised concerns among passengers and airport staff, with many awaiting further updates from the authorities. The safety and security of all individuals at the airport are of utmost importance, and officials are working diligently to determine the cause of the crash and prevent similar incidents in the future.
Passengers are advised to check with their airlines for any potential flight delays or cancellations due to the runway closures. The airport is cooperating fully with the investigation and will provide updates as more information becomes available.
