## Narrative

As the FAA filed it, in capitals; the FAA replaces private details with ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.

(-5) DURING LANDING LAX, A FOOD CART CAME LOOSE FROM IT'S STOWED POSITION AND STRUCK 7 PASSENGERS. MINOR INJURIES (MINOR ABRASIONS AND BRUISES). NO PASSENGER OF CREW TRANSPORTED TO THE HOSPITAL. THERE WAS NO AIRCRAFT DAMAGE. THE AIRCRAFT AND FOOD CART WERE INSPECTED BY INSPECTORS FOR THE DALA CMO. THE BRAKES ON THE CART AND THE RETAINING DEVICE ON THE AIRCRAFT WERE IN GOOD WORKING ORDER. IT APPEARS THE FLIGHT ATTENDANTS MAY HAVE FAILED TO FOLLOW DELTA PROCEDURES TO SECURE THE CABIN PRIOR TO LANDING.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
