10 Injured in Airplane Crash at LaGuardia

Ten people were injured when a Southwest Airlines 737 crashed after landing, on Monday evening, at LaGuardia Airport in New York.

The 737 landed safely, but as it was going down the runway it's front landing gear collapsed.

It then skidded down the runway for several hundred feet, before veering into grass beside the runway.

The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating the incident.

La Guardia was forced to keep the runway closed until Tuesday morning when cranes were able to move the airplane.

With only one runway operational, the airport saw major delays.
