NEWARK, New Jersey (WABC) -- The FAA is investigating after two planes apparently clipped wings at Newark Liberty International Airport on Friday morning.

United Airlines said the flight from Newark to Orlando, Florida, was parked at the gate when another much larger United aircraft clipped its wing while being relocated.

The passengers on Flight 2135 to Orlando were able to deplane normally without injury.

Was that part of the ramp uncontrolled?

No injuries were reported in the accident, which happened around 8:45 a.m., the agency said. The Boeing 787 was being tugged to a different location when it clipped the United flight at the gate, a preliminary review found.

No injuries were reported, and the FAA says its investigation is ongoing.

United Airlines confirmed in a statement that one of its aircraft, which had no passengers aboard and was supposed to head to Denver later Friday, hit an aircraft as it tried to park at the next gate in Terminal C. Passengers on the parked plane that was hit deplaned normally and were booked on rescheduled flights on a different plane, the airline said.
