An American Airlines plane carrying 25 passengers suffered damage after veering off the end of a runway in the Bahamas.

No injuries were reported but the American Eagle Embraer ERJ jet suffered damage.

There was undercarriage and landing gear damage after it skidded and came to a halt on grass at Freeport Grand Bahama Airport.  

The Aircraft Accident Investigation Authority (AAIA) is investigating the accident.

The plane had flown from Miami.

"American Eagle flight 4194, operated by Envoy Air experienced an issue with the rear landing gear upon landing at Freeport which caused it to slide off the runway. No serious injuries were reported. All 25 passengers and three crew members deplaned safely," the airline said in a statement.
