Man Fatally Sucked Into Jet Engine at Milan Airport

A tragic incident occurred at Milan Bergamo Airport as a man was sucked into a jet engine on the runway, resulting in his death. The victim, who was not a passenger or airport employee, ran onto the tarmac as a plane was preparing for departure. This led to the suspension of flight operations at 10:20am local time, with 19 flights canceled and others delayed. Incidents of individuals being sucked into jet engines are rare due to stringent security measures in place. An investigation is underway to determine how the man breached the airport’s perimeter. This incident echoes similar occurrences in Amsterdam and Salt Lake City. (Newser)
