John Travolta Dogs Killed at Bangor International Airport

Sad news for John Travolta. Two of his dogs had been accidentally struck and killed on the tarmac early last Thursday morning by an employee at Bangor International Airport, according to city officials.

Travolta’s dogs killed by pickup at BIA

“At approximately 1 a.m. on Thursday, May 13, 2010, an airplane carrying members of the John Travolta family landed at BIA. While there, two small dogs were taken for a walk by someone who is not a family member. An airport service pickup truck was approaching the airplane to service the airplane and did not see the dogs. Unfortunately, the dogs were struck and killed. The airport is investigating the accident. Out of respect for the family’s privacy the city will make no further comment.”

Airport Director Rebecca Hupp said normally it’s the airport’s policy not to comment on the identity of any passengers that come through Bangor, which is why, she said, she didn’t release a statement immediately after the accident happened.
