A United Airlines passenger jet arriving at Newark Liberty International Airport struck a light pole and a delivery/tractor-trailer on the New Jersey Turnpike during its approach, according to multiple reports. New Jersey State Police and other officials say the aircraft hit the pole while coming in for landing on Sunday, and that a truck traveling on the highway at the time was also damaged. Several outlets cite preliminary details suggesting the impact involved the landing gear area and the underside/belly of the plane, with at least one report noting a tire from the landing gear. Video released by news outlets shows the aircraft clipping the pole and the truck during the landing sequence. United said the incident occurred as the flight was on final approach, and authorities are investigating what happened. Federal authorities are also involved in the investigation, while airport and highway officials assess the effects of the collision and determine whether any injuries resulted. The reports agree the incident took place near Newark and involved both an aviation and a roadway target during the landing phase. No final cause has been reported in the accounts provided.
