Keewatin Air is vowing to make sure medevac services continue after one of its planes overran the runway in Sanikiluaq, Nunavut, on Friday morning.

The Beechcraft King Air B-200 plane was carrying four Keewatin Air crew members — two flight crew and two medics — during the landing at about 6:45 a.m. ET, said airline president Jason Kendall in an email to CBC News.  

Everyone on board received medical evaluation at the local health centre, Kendall said, without offering any details of injuries. A spokesperson for Nunavut’s RCMP had earlier said the injuries were minor.
