Flight PK 240 was about to leave for Sialkot when the incident occurred. No casualties were reported in the incident.
Earlier this month, in another bizarre incident, a PIA employee ran amok with a catering pick-up van on the runway of Karachi airport for half an hour. He was detained by the Airport Security Force (ASF) but by then, he had caused two other vehicles to collide with each other and had injured an official.
PIA, however, denied the incident and said that a collision took place only between the vigilance vehicle and an ASF car.

ET has an agenda to defame and degrade Pakistan and its institutions in every bit of the news. It seems it is more like a Western/ Indian news paper.
Just don't tell me the guy said "I didn't see it."
@Vaqar - UK: Sun Tzu's Principles Of Subversion No. 1. Cover with ridicule all of the valid traditions in your opponent’s country. No. 3. Disrupt the work of their government by every means;
You will understand why according to media things are so bad in Pakistan, in reality it is no different from most of the country.
Blame PIA's down fall on poor truck driver.
Err! What is the link between the various incidents mentioned in this story? Not defending PIA here, but a loading truck hitting the plane has not the airlines fault, but the provider of the service's fault.
I am sorry to say the editorial control over your news stories is on a steady downward slope.
