An Air France A340 passenger jet crashed during descent into Toronto's main airport late this afternoon. Canadian Press is reporting that 243 passengers were onboard, but there are so far no reports of fatalities.
Update, 3 August: Updated reports confirm that there were indeed no fatalities, and in fact no serious injuries in the crash. The aircraft's crew performed a "textbook" evacuation of the plane, and all 309 people aboard were able to get out of the burning aircraft within two minutes.
