Emergency crews are at Hartsfield-Inteational Airport after a plane undergoing maintenance veered off a taxiway.

No passengers were on the plane, which airport cameras show was tilted on its side.

A Federal Aviation Administration spokesperson said a maintenance person was moving the place when it went off the taxiway.

The incident is not impeding traffic at the airport, the FAA said.

GA Daily News reporter Amanda Cook is at the scene gathering more information
