This is absolutely crazy, y'all!
BREAKING 911:
200 passengers evacuated a Delta flight at Atlanta Airport after an aborted takeoff. Emergency slides were used, and 4 reported minor injuries, 1 hospitalized. Flight was headed to Minneapolis.
Why is everyone running through the snow in a mad dash like the plane is about to blow? What is going on?
Passengers exited the Boeing 757-300 aircraft through emergency slides and ground transportation was used to take them back to the terminal.
Four passengers reported minor injuries in the incident, with one transported to an area hospital, the airport said. The other three were treated at the scene, the airport said. The nature of their injuries was not immediately clear.
The FAA is investigating. We still haven't heard why the takeoff was abandoned, how anyone was hurt, and why the plane was stranded and why emergency exits had to be used.
Some reports are that there was an engine failure and possibly an engine fire right at takeoff, but this has not been confirmed by the FAA or the airline.

If there was a possible fire, I’d haul ass, too. Seems normal to me.
