The Federal Aviation Administration and National Transportation Safety Board are investigating the incident that took place around 2 p.m. The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey said Flight 169 was making its final approach onto Runway 29 when it "struck an object," causing damage to a light post and a southbound tractor-trailer.

"Based on a preliminary investigation, while a United Airlines Aircraft was approaching the runway, a landing tire and the underside of the plane collided with a pole and a tractor-trailer," NJ State Police said in a statement following the incident. "The pole then struck a Jeep traveling on the NJTPK. The driver of the tractor-trailer sustained non-life-threatening injuries and was transported to an area hospital." Chuck Paterakis, vice president of transportation for Schmidt Bakery and owner of H&S Family of Bakeries, told ABC News that Baker's Express was delivering a load of bread product to the Newark depot at the airport when "the driver experienced a commercial plane tires landing on the tractor or brushing the top of the tractor." Paterakis identified the driver as Warren Boardley of Baltimore and said he got some glass in his arm, but his injuries were non-life-threatening. "Everybody, the driver and everybody on the plane, should be very fortunate, because it could have been the opposite of what happened, and a little help from God went a long way tonight for everybody on the plane, and including the driver," Paterakis said.
