An American Airlines flight had trouble coming to a stop after touching down at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport on Saturday night, the FAA confirms.
The Federal Aviation Administration said AA Flight 1632 "experienced a braking malfunction" after landing at 7:41 p.m. and came to a stop in the runway safety area (RSA).
The passengers and crew were deplaned and bussed to the terminal about 90 minutes after touching down. American Airlines confirmed to NBC 5 there were no injuries among the 99 passengers and six crew on board the flight from Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport.
AA identified the aircraft as a Boeing 737-800.

The FAA is investigating the incident. American Airlines said they are fully cooperating with the National Transportation Safety Board in its investigation.
Editor's Note: The FAA originally said the plane stopped using an EMAS (Engineered Materials Arresting System), which is a crushable material at the end of a runway. When the aircraft runs into the EMAS, the aircraft's tires sink into the lightweight material and the aircraft is decelerated as it rolls through the material. An American Airlines representative told NBC 5 that DFW Airport does not have EMAS. The FAA has since adjusted its statement posted here.
