The incident took place on the night of March 22, when the aircraft, arriving from Montreal, struck an airport fire truck that was crossing the runway in response to a separate emergency.

Audio recordings from air traffic control have since gone viral, capturing the urgency and panic in the final seconds before impact. A controller can be heard repeatedly shouting, “Stop, stop, stop,” trying to halt the fire truck as it moved onto the runway.
