2:55 p.m.

Flights have resumed at the San Antonio airport about four hours after operations were suspended because an American Airlines plane got stuck in the mud.

San Antonio International Airport spokeswoman Evelynn Bailey says the plane is still stuck, but the airport got approval from the Federal Aviation Administration to open a second commercial runway that was closed for scheduled construction. The runway with the stuck plane remains closed.

Flights were suspended at about 9:45 a.m. Saturday after American Airlines Flight 2214 veered off the edge of the runway during takeoff. Bailey said airport operations resumed at 1:35 p.m.

The airport says the incident caused several delays and cancellations.

Passengers aboard the stuck plane were bused back to the terminal.

FAA spokesman Lynn Lunsford says FAA investigators are on the scene.
