A Delta aircraft clipped the tail of another plane Tuesday morning at an Atlanta airport.

The collision happened just after 10 a.m. at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport while Delta Flight 295 was taxiing for departure and struck Endeavor Air Flight 5526, the Federal Aviation Administration said in a statement.

Video taken at the airport appears to show the Endeavor plane with its tail hanging off the side of the aircraft.

There are no reports of injuries and maintenance crews are evaluating for damage, Delta Air Lines said.

The Delta flight was headed to Tokyo and the Endeavor Air flight to Lafayette, Louisiana. Delta said it is working to re-accommodate both flights.

This is a developing story. Please check back for updates.
