LOS ANGELES - Officials said two planes taking off from Los Angeles early Saturday morning nearly collided, according to a video report from CBS News. The outlet's summary said the planes "almost collided," a description that matches the wording of its headline.
CBS News said its correspondent, Kris Van Cleave, had more details about the episode. Those details were not contained in the summary available for this report, so the specifics of what officials described remain unavailable here.
The summary did not say which airlines operated the planes, what types of aircraft were involved, how close the planes came to one another, or whether anyone on board or on the ground was hurt. It also did not name the officials who made the statement or the agencies they work for.
According to CBS News, the incident involved planes taking off from Los Angeles, the only location named in the summary. The summary does not describe the runways, the flight numbers, or the routes the aircraft were following, and no other outlet's coverage of the incident was among the sources reviewed for this story.
The summary does not say when the officials made their statement or whether any review of the incident has been opened. Because the account rests on a single brief video summary, it is limited to the points described above.
The full CBS News report, linked above, was not available in text form for this story.
