Plane makes emergency landing on roadway
A Washington State Trooper was driving down Pacific Avenue when he saw something that wasn’t supposed to be there: a small plane.
A single propellor KR2 plane made an emergency landing at 8:15 a.m. due to a fuel system malfunction, said Trooper Johnna Batiste in a tweet. Remarkably, no one was injured.
The Trooper, who just happened to be in the right place at the right time, captured the whole thing on his vehicle’s dash cam. The clip concludes when the Trooper helps the pilot push the plane off the roadway and out of traffic.
