-- An
empty American Airlines jet rolled through a fence onto a nearby
street at Los Angeles International airport Wednesday morning
There were no
injuries.

some power lines and its nose extended about 15 feet onto World Way

| The
plane was parked outside a maintenance hanger when it rolled away,
according to a statement from American Airlines.

The plane rolled
slowly enough that traffic on the street was not affected, Pacheco
