Boeing 777 belonging to the US airline United Airlines lost a wheel while taking off from the airport in San Francisco. Instead of going to Japan as planned, the plane and its 250 passengers had to fly to Los Angeles.
Debris from the torn off wheel damaged several cars. Photos show shattered windows and a crushed car, and a fence is also said to have been damaged. The runway was briefly closed after the incident so the debris could be cleared. Investigations will now also be initiated to find out why the wheel came off the Boeing.
