From Times Wire Reports

A Northwest Airlines DC-9 that had reported hydraulic problems collided with a Northwest Airbus on the ground at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport, injuring six people, officials said.

The six were taken to a hospital, but the extent of their injuries was not immediately known. Northwest released a statement saying that several crew members were injured but that no passengers were hurt.

The DC-9 had flown in from Columbus, Ohio, and landed without incident when the pilot apparently lost control of the steering as he taxied toward the gate.
