Runways open at LaGuardia Airport after Delta plane smashed into fence
New York City's LaGuardia Airport reopened its second runway Friday after removing a Delta jetliner that skidded and smashed through a fence a day earlier.
Port Authority spokesman Joe Pentangelo said the second runway was reopened around 10:30 a.m. Friday. The airport's other runway was reopened about three hours after Thursday's accident.
Cranes were used overnight to remove plane.
Six people were hurt in the incident Thursday. The nose of the plane came to rest just feet from icy Flushing Bay.
The plane has been taken to a hangar.
