Multiple web search results confirm the NTSB released reports regarding incidents. Specifically, reports regarding a United Airlines plane striking a light pole on the NJ Turnpike (incident in May 2026) were released in June 2026, confirming the release of a report concerning a May incident.

Claim 2: “it was initially believed a United Airlines plane clipped a passing [vehicle/object on the NJ Turnpike]”
DISPUTED
There is a direct contradiction between sources regarding what the plane hit. Two news sources and Wikipedia state the plane struck a 'light pole' on the New Jersey Turnpike. However, another source (Facebook) claims the plane 'slammed into a bakery delivery truck'. Because these sources provide conflicting factual accounts of the object struck, the claim is disputed.
