US: Damaged runway reopens at LaGuardia Airport

A runway at LaGuardia Airport has reopened after emergency crews fixed a section of it that was damaged. The disruption caused flight delays of over an hour at the New York airport Wednesday night as planes got backed up. Officials say a departing aircraft reported seeing pavement damage on the runway earlier that afternoon. The runway reopened at about 8 p.m. after workers repaired the surface layer of a section of pavement.<br/>
