Taxiing plane strikes wing of 2nd plane; no injuries

Authorities say a plane taxiing at Newark Liberty Airport struck the wing of another plane, but no one was injured. The airport said in a message on Twitter that the Southwest Airlines plane was taxiing shortly after 7 a.m. Saturday when it struck wings with a parked airliner at the airport's Terminal A gate. The airport said there were no injuries, and passengers were to be rebooked. News 12 New Jersey reported that Southwest Airlines Flight 6 bound for Fort Lauderdale, Florida, began to taxi following deicing when its left wing grazed a parked plane being de-iced prior to a trip to Nashville, Tennessee. An airline representative said both planes were taken out of service for review.<br/>
