BANGOR, Maine — Two dogs that belonged to actor John Travolta and his family were accidentally struck and killed early last Thursday morning by an employee at Bangor International Airport, according to city officials.

An e-mail sent late last week by Bangor Interim City Manager Bob Farrar to the nine city councilors that was obtained by the Bangor Daily News confirmed the accident.

Asked to verify the details contained in the e-mail, the city released this statement:

“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.”

6. Yeah, just think, all those body theatens the dogs released...

... went into the Trivolta family. He will now have to purchase 3 more courses per family member at $3k a pop to have them removed. What a tragedy. I wonder if they'll bill BIA for the courses.
