Moment plane tyre explodes during take-off in Tampa
Footage shows the moment an American Airlines plane blew a tyre during take-off at Tampa International Airport.
The pilot aborted the take-off and brought the plane to a stop. Emergency vehicles can later be seen arriving at the scene.
A spokesperson for the airport, Joshua Gillin, told local media that everyone on board, including 174 passengers and six crew members, had been "safely deplaned and were bussed to the terminal".
No injuries were reported, and all passengers were placed on replacement flights to Phoenix.
