NYT article (https://www.nytimes.com/2023/02/11/us/lax-plane-bus-crash-american-airlines.html?action=click&module=Well&pgtype=Homepage&section=US%20News). Empty AA A321 in tow hit a shuttle bus or vice versa. Expensive fender-bender. Maybe traffic lights would solve these recurring problems...

Collision at C5. B closed between C4 and C6 shortly after collision. From the angle/position, looks like aircraft/tug got spun counterclockwise. One reporter noted damage underneath nose of aircraft.
