Boeing 737 crashes during take-off in Senegal


Eleven people are injured, four of them seriously, as the Air Senegal plane leaves the runway in Dakar.

Air Senegal flight HC 301 bound for the Malian capital Bamako went off the runway in the early hours of Thursday, Dakar's Blaise Diagne airport said in a statement. Boeing has not commented on the incident, nor has Transair, the private company from which Air Senegal chartered the plane. An unused door blew out of an Alaska Airlines Boeing 737 Max in January shortly after take-off in the US.
