An American Airlines plane with 111 people aboard has slid off a runway shortly after landing.

A Montreal airport spokeswoman said no one on the plane was injured. The Boeing 737 did not sustain any significant damage.

The flight from Dallas landed in Canada at Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport and was apparently rolling along the runway at a slow speed when the incident occurred.

The 105 passengers and six crew members were transported to the airport terminal by bus. The federal Transportation Safety Board said it will launch an investigation.
