THE AIRCRAFT RETURNED TO THE GATE WHERE IT WAS MET BY PARAMEDICS, WHO THEN TRANSPORTED THE FA TO ST LUKE HOSPITAL.

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.
