Update 3: All passengers and crew are now accounted for. Passengers have been allowed to leave the airport and operations are gradually returning to normal in the airport.

Update 2: The San Francisco fire chief, Joanne Hayne-White, has announced that two people have been confirmed dead, dozens injured while 60 people are unaccounted for.  The injured have been rushed to hospital while some of the passengers are still held up in the airport as authorities appear to want to interview them.

Update 1: 291 passengers, 23 crew members were reportedly on board the flight, according to Salon. It remains unclear whether there were any casualties.

One passenger, David Eun [@Eunner] tweeted from the ground about the crash.

“I just crash landed at SFO. Tail ripped off. Most everyone seems fine,” Mr. Eun said. “I’m ok. Surreal…”
