A Dassault Falcon 50 private jet skidded off runway 1L at Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas during takeoff on a Sunday morning. The aircraft, which was bound for Toronto, struck a perimeter fence. 

No injuries were reported among the eight people on board. The incident caused the Federal Aviation Administration to issue a ground stop, affecting approximately 330 flights and causing significant delays. Runways 1L and 1R were temporarily closed for safety inspections before being reopened later the same day. 

Actor and singer Donnie Wahlberg, who was on the aircraft, stated in a video that the pilots saved their lives and that the plane avoided heavy equipment before hitting the fence. The FAA is investigating the cause of the excursion.
