Pilot and co-pilot killed after Air Canada jet collision at LaGuardia New York

An Air Canada Express plane collided with a Port Authority vehicle at LaGuardia Airport early Monday, triggering a complete ground stop of all flights at the New York facility. The Federal Aviation Administration issued the ground stop while New York's emergency management authority warned the public to expect widespread flight cancellations and delays. The New York Police Department confirmed the collision but provided no immediate details about injuries, damage, or the circumstances that led to the incident. LaGuardia, one of the three major airports serving the New York City metropolitan area, remains closed to flight operations as investigators assess the damage and determine when normal operations can resume.
