An American Airlines spokesperson says that the pilot reported a possible mechanical issue prior to landing. It remains unclear the issue was, despite early reports that the aircraft had suffered a blown tire.
SkyCal was overhead as the plane taxied into a gate, where a boarding bridge was connected to allow passengers to de-board.
There have been no reports of injury.
The incident comes just days after a United Airlines plane, also a Boeing 777, that had taken off from San Francisco International Airport had to make an emergency landing at LAX after losing a tire.
Again on Friday evening, another flight out of SFO had to make an emergency landing at LAX because of problems with the aircraft’s hydraulic system.
This is a developing story. Check back for details.
