United Flight Gets Stuck in Mud

A United Airlines flight got stuck in the mud at Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU) Tuesday after taking too sharp of a turn when preparing for takeoff. The aircraft, scheduled to go to Newark, went off of the concrete and into the mud where one of its wheels became lodged. No injuries were reported, and the passengers onboard were moved to another flight.

A mechanic was allegedly still trying to free the aircraft at the time reports of the incident were released.
