(Photo: Reuters)New York: A plane carrying U.S. Republican vice presidential nominee Mike Pence skidded off the runway after landing in the rain at New York City's LaGuardia Airport on Thursday, halting flights for at least an hour, officials said. Since then, numerous women have come forward to say that they were groped by Trump, claims that he has denied. On Thursday, Pence had been scheduled to attend a fundraiser at Trump Tower in Manhattan, but canceled it after his plane slid off the runway, MSNBC reported. Live television footage showed Pence standing in the rain near the plane among emergency vehicles, talking to police and other officials. Trump called Pence from his motorcade while en route to a rally in Geneva, Ohio.
