American Airlines plane wheels catch fire at Denver airport
All 173 passengers and six crew members were safely evacuated from American Airlines Flight 3023 after the left main landing gear tires of the Miami-bound Boeing 737 MAX 8 caught fire on the tarmac at Denver International Airport.
The incident reportedly occurred during a maintenance-related issue, leading to the aborted takeoff. Emergency crews, including the Denver Fire Department, responded swiftly to the scene and successfully extinguished the fire.
One individual was transported to the hospital for further evaluation, though no serious injuries were reported.
