Narrative:
An Airbus A321 was damaged at Berlin's Schönefeld Airport when it hit a light tower. The aircraft was being moved by a towing truck at the time. It impacted a light tower which then fell on top of the aircraft, across the forward fuselage.
The airplane had arrived from Fuerteventura Airport (FUE/GCFV), Spain (Canary Islands) at 20:07 hours local time. ADS-B data from Flightradar24 ended at Stand 22. It's unclear if the aircraft suffered the incident whilst being towed from this position.
