Sand truck collides with plane on Minot airport tarmac, no injuries

Winter weather created an unusual scene at Minot International Airport Tuesday morning when a sand truck slid on icy pavement and struck the nose of a SkyWest plane. No passengers were aboard and no injuries were reported, but the collision damaged both vehicles and led to canceled flights for United Airlines travelers. The city says proper reporting and screening processes are underway, with the Highway Patrol now leading the investigation. For travelers, the advice is straightforward: double-check flight schedules before heading to the airport.
