Two airport workers were injured after a de-icing truck flipped over at Pearson International Airport Sunday morning.

The driver – a man in his 20s – was airlifted to a downtown trauma centre unconscious, Peel Regional Police said.

The man is in stable condition and is expected to survive, police said.

A passenger was taken to hospital with minor injuries as a precaution.

Police said initial information indicates the driver was in training and that the truck flipped after a sharp turn shifted the weight of the ice too quickly

In a notice on its Twitter page, the airport said no aircraft were involved in the incident and that operations at the airport are not affected.

A spokesperson for the airport said the Ministry of Labour will be investigating the incident.

The Major Collision Bureau is also investigating, police said.
