Emergency crews are responding to a crash involving a Delta Air Lines plane that arrived Monday at Toronto Pearson Airport from Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport, ultimately landing upside down amid wintry conditions.

The FAA says all 80 people on board Flight 4819, operated by Endeavor Air, were evacuated.

Peel Regional Paramedic Services confirmed to CBS News that 15 patients had been transported to the hospital. Out of those injuries, one child and two adults are critically injured. The rest of the injuries are minor to moderate, officials said.

All crew and passengers have been accounted for.

Not sure, but there's a video from the cockpit from another plane on a taxiway that shows the aircraft coming down pretty hard. Can only speculate for now but it's possible it's either pilot error or wind shear.

This whole time I thought that video was from a ground vehicle!
