According to multiple reports, Giants tight end Larry Donnell was a passenger on Delta Airlines Flight 1086, which slid off a runway and through a fence in wintry conditions at New York’s LaGuardia Airport on Thursday morning.
However, Donnell was unharmed, the player’s agent told Ralph Vacchiano of the New York Daily News. The newspaper reported Donnell was returning to New York from Atlanta, where the fight originated, to sign his exclusive-rights contract with the Giants.
Via an Instagram account (beyond_greatnes) that bears his name, Donnell appears to have posted a photo and a video just outside the accident site. (A hat tip to Art Stapleton of the Bergen Record for pointing this out.)
“Plane down” read the caption of one photo of the aircraft in the snow, its nose sticking through the fence.
According to the New York Daily News, which cited a fire department spokesperson, no injuries have been reported from the incident.
