    A passenger plane was hit by a bullet while departing from Dallas, USA. The plane had to return to the gate, according to Southwest Airlines.

    The incident took place on Friday evening (local time) at Dallas Love Field Airport. The bullet hit the cockpit of the Boeing 737-800, according to the FAA. As far as is known, no one was injured.

    The crew was preparing to take off at the time the bullet hit, according to the airline. The plane was supposed to fly to Indianapolis.

    The plane was not used for that flight after the shooting. It is still unclear who is responsible for the incident.
