Delta Air Lines Inc. resumed flights at a Toronto airport Tuesday as investigators sift through wreckage from a regional jet that flipped out of control after landing and skidding along the runway before coming to rest upside down.

There were no fatalities in the accident Monday at Toronto-Pearson International Airport. Twenty-one people were taken to hospital, and all but two have since been released, according to Delta. The regional jet, which was coming from Minneapolis/St. Paul, had 76 passengers and four crew.
