FAN Editor

The nose wheel of the Airbus A320 slid off the taxiway and into the grass.

Spirit Airlines Flight 696 skidded off the runway after landing at Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport this morning, the carrier confirmed.

There were no injuries among the 111 passengers and crew members, Spirit said.

The FAA and the National Transportation Safety Board will investigate the incident.

While officials have not attributed the plane’s skidding to weather conditions, a snowstorm is slamming the Northeast, closing schools and dropping nearly 4 feet of snow in some areas.
