Boeing jet crash-lands at Guyana airport, 10 injuredTen people were injured in scenes described as “chaos” as a Boeing airliner carrying 126 people, most of them Canadians, crash-landed in Guyana’s capital Georgetown on Friday, skidding to a halt just before a steep drop. The Fly Jamaica Airways plane was bound for Toronto when it suffered a hydraulic problem shortly after takeoff and returned to the airport, crashing and careening off the runway, Transportation Minister David Patterson said. “Everyone was going crazy, screaming, crying for their lives, everything,” said passenger Invor Bedessee, describing how some people were injured getting off the flight.
