The Federal Aviation Administration says a Delta Airbus A350 and an Endeavor Bombardier CRJ900 jet clipped each other Tuesday morning on the tarmac at an Atlanta airport.

The FAA said in a statement to Fox News Digital that “while Delta Air Lines Flight 295 was taxiing for departure at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, its wingtip struck the tail of Endeavor Air Flight 5526.”

“The Delta Airbus A350 was headed to Tokyo. The Endeavor Bombardier CRJ900 was headed to Lafayette, Louisiana,” the agency added. “The FAA will investigate the incident, which occurred at the intersection of two taxiways around 10:10 a.m. local time on Tuesday, Sept. 10.”

Images being posted on social media show heavy damage to the tail of one of the planes, whose vertical stabilizer appears to have been severed from the aircraft.

“Well that was terrifying. Taxiing out for the flight from Atlanta to Louisiana and another plane appears to have clipped the back of our plane,” WFTS Meteorologist Jason Adams posted on X. “Very jarring, metal scraping sounds then loud bangs. We’re fine. No fire or smoke.”

Delta said in its own statement that “the wing of an Airbus A350 taxiing out as DL295 from Atlanta to Tokyo-Haneda made contact with the tail of an Endeavor Air CRJ-900, DL5526 to LaFayette, Louisiana, on an adjacent taxiway, resulting in damage to the tail of the regional jet and the wing of the A350. 

“There have been no reported injuries at this time,” the airline said. “There were 221 customers on DL295 and 56 customers on DL5526. At this time, no additional operational adjustments are expected. “

Delta later issued a second statement saying it has “worked with each customer… to provide accommodation on alternate aircraft scheduled to depart Tuesday afternoon. We apologize to our customers for the experience.”

Delta says “there have been no reported injuries at this time and customers are being transported back to the terminal where they will be reaccommodated on alternate flights.” (WANF )

“Meanwhile Delta is cooperating with the NTSB and other authorities while Delta TechOps teams prepare to safely move both aircraft to maintenance hangars,” it also said.

Former President Donald Trump fact checked Vice President Kamala Harris for invoking the Charlottesville riots of 2017 during the presidential debate in Philadelphia, saying the narrative has been “debunked.”

“On Charlottesville, that story has been, as you would say, debunked,” Trump said. “Laura Ingraham, Sean Hannity, Jesse, all these people, they covered it. If they go an extra sentence, they will see. It was debunked in almost every newspaper, but they still bring it up.”

Trump’s comment followed Harris citing the 2017 protests and riots during the debate parroting President Biden that Trump allegedly sided with protesters “spewing anti-Semitic hate.” 

“Let’s remember Charlottesville, where there was a mob of people carrying tiki torches, spewing anti-Semitic hate. And what did the president, then at the time say? There were fine people on each side,” Harris said.

“Donald Trump, the candidate, has said in this election, there will be a bloodbath if … the outcome of this election is not to his liking. Let’s turn the page on this. Let’s not go back. Let’s chart a course for the future and not go backwards to the past,” Harris said. 

Earlier this year, Trump said during a rally in Ohio in March that there would be a “bloodbath” for the U.S. if he is not elected while speaking about the auto industry and autoworkers. 

“Now if I don’t get elected, it’s going to be a bloodbath for the whole – that’s gonna be the least of it. It’s going to be a bloodbath for the country. That will be the least of it. But they’re not going to sell those cars. They’re building massive factories.”

Trump shot back during the debate that his bloodbath remark was referring to the economy. 

“It was a term that related to energy, because they have destroyed our energy business. That was where the bloodbath was,” he said, before saying the Charlottesville narrative has been debunked.

Biden has long made the claim that Trump called neo-Nazis “very fine people” following the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, in 2017. 

SNOPES’ DEBUNKING OF CHARLOTTESVILLE HOAX SHOWS BIDEN LIED, SAYS TRUMP CAMPAIGN

Left-leaning, fact-checking website Snopes published a piece earlier this year debunking claims promoted by Biden and some members of the media that following the Unite the Right rally, Trump called neo-Nazis “very fine people.” Biden repeatedly cited the false claim before bowing out of the race, even saying it was the impetus for his 2020 White House run against Trump. 

Snopes detailed in its fact check that Trump was clear he was not calling neo-Nazis “fine people” when he made the comment at a press conference that year.

“While Trump did say that there were ‘very fine people on both sides,’ he also specifically noted that he was not talking about neo-Nazis and White supremacists and said they should be ‘condemned totally.’ Therefore, we have rated this claim ‘False,’” Snopes wrote.

The protests in Charlottesville in 2017, which played out across two days in August 2017, included White nationalists descending on the city who were met by hundreds of counter-protesters.

“We condemn in the strongest possible terms this egregious display of hatred, bigotry and violence on many sides, on many sides,” Trump said in August that year. Trump added days later in a press conference that he condemned the “egregious display of hatred, bigotry and violence” and came under fire from Democrats for his remarks that there was “blame on both sides” and “very fine people, on both sides.”

After a freak accident left him paralyzed, a Florida officer walked into retirement — literally one step at a time.

Over two years ago, Master Deputy Harold “Hal” Davis of the Orange County Sheriff’s Office (OCSO) fell from a ladder while doing yard work at his home, leaving him unable to walk, officials with the OCSO posted on X.

“Doctors told Master Deputy Hal Davis he may never walk again. Today he stepped into his retirement party,” the post said.

In a video, Davis walked into his retirement party unassisted.

Davis served on the force with the OCSO for 17 years but spent a total of 32 years in law enforcement.

Since his fall, Davis has been using a wheelchair, but throughout his recovery, he “was determined to walk again and finish his career with OCSO,” according to the post.

Despite the accident, which left Davis with a severe spinal cord injury and unable to breathe as his wife administered CPR, he has had a strong recovery, Fox 10 Phoenix reported.

“[He] was honored for training judges and state attorneys on courtroom safety,” OCSO officials wrote on social media.

Davis also defied the odds in March 2023 by walking his daughter down the aisle at her wedding, a dream he thought had been shattered after his accident, according to Fox Television Stations.

Davis and his wife, Cynthia, have been keeping their friends updated on his recovery journey through a GoFundMe account.

Davis’ retirement ceremony took place Aug. 30 and was welcomed by his family and fellow officers with joyous applause.
