US rockers Bon Jovi escaped injury early today when their private Boeing 707 jet skidded off a runway at Hamilton airport, west of Toronto, in a severe rain storm, officials said."It was about 1am, they were landing and the aircraft went off the runway about 50 feet (15 metres). The nose gear was off in the grass, but the back tyres stayed on the edge of the asphalt," airport president Richard Koroscil said.
The jet, carrying all four members of the 1980s glam rock band, their touring staff and crew, 19 people in total, overshot the runway as they flew in from Buffalo, New York, where they played a late Friday night show.
"There were no injuries," Koroscil said. "They had a van ready to take them to Toronto. They were gone within an hour."
The aircraft was not damaged.
HAVE A NICE DAY!
