## Narrative

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

(-23) AIRCRAFT WAS DE-ICED AND CREW WAS GIVEN THEIR DEICE REPORT THAT THEY WERE CLEAN AND CLEAR AND TOLD THEY WERE CLEAR TO TAXI AND CONTACT GROUND CONTROL. CREW FELT A BUMP AND THOUGHT THEY HAD RUN OVER SOME ICE WITH THE NOSE TIRES. A PASSENGER SITTING AT SEAT 10D TOLD THE FLIGHT ATTENDANT THAT THEY HAD HIT THE BOOM ON THE DE-ICE TRUCK AND SPUN IT AROUND. THE FLIGHT ATTENDANT NOTIFIED THE CAPTAIN AND SHE TAXIED BACK TO THE GATE TO CHECK THE DAMAGE.
