No one was injured, aparently :clap: . Not_in AvieHeraldie yet. There's a video from the interior that stops shortly after a "thud" is heard and a very crappy picture showing damage to the leading edge between the fuselage and the left engine (and maybe some damage to the engine nacelle).

CONCUR. Had he taken the sensible action of ordering a worlwide, immediate, permanent grounding of the 737Max as soon as he took office this NTAD!!!!! would Not_have happened :x .

Do you think that the Gol 737 was told to keep visual separation with the truck and cross behind it, but the pilots instead attempted to cross 100 ft below the truck?
