Overview
- The EasyJet flight from Venice, which was on final to Paris-Orly on Sunday, broke off its approach after the crew saw smoke and ground flashes by Runway 25.
- The crew performed a routine go-around and then landed safely on another runway, and EasyJet and officials say the plane was not hit and passengers were not in danger.
- Witness video gathered by transport gendarmes links the bursts to a wedding procession of about 15 vehicles in Villeneuve-le-Roi and Ablon-sur-Seine.
- The runway closest to the explosions was closed as a precaution and controllers redirected traffic to keep flights moving before normal operations resumed.
- Investigators are pursuing an obstruction-of-air-navigation case led by the transport gendarmerie, with no arrests so far and intent not yet established.
