CNN

TORONTO, Canada (CNN) -- An Air France jet overran a runway and burst into flames Tuesday at Toronto's Pearson International Airport.

The Associated Press reported 200 passengers were onboard the Airbus 340. There was no information on casualties.

Flight 358 was scheduled to arrive from Paris's Charles de Gaulle International Airport at 3:35 p.m. EDT.

"This plane came off the runway. It slid off the runway and into this gully," said Toronto radio reporter Leah Walker, who witnessed the crash. "It's come off with probably a great amount of force into trees and the creek."

She said a fireball engulfed the plane.

"There are hundreds of emergency vehicles here to do whatever is possible to be done at this point."

Smoke billowed from the site, as scores of emergency workers sought to put it out.

Severe thunderstorms had occurred in the area beforehand.

Vito Porto, a freelance photographer, told Canada's Global television network that an explosion occurred after the crash, throwing debris for several hundred feet.

damn, when i first heard about it, i wa like damn, 250 dead, that really sucks. But Im glad none of them were hurt. that would be cool though, to be in a plane crash and not get hurt. I'd do it(If I knew I wasn't going to die/get hurt). Think of the stores you could tell and the experience. But my prayers go out to all those people.

i cant take him[liam downey] seriously cuz his name reminds me of that downy bear from back when i was a kid -d loc

I don't deny there are bad things in the US right now, hell, 51% of the country to be exact. But god damnit, our country being fat is NOT a problem. I do't give a shit how fat people are. hell, fat kids are harder to kidnap, that means our country is safer.
