    Small plane makes emergency landing on interstate in Pennsylvania

    -


    A small airplane made an emergency landing on Interstate 78 in Allentown, Pennsylvania on Saturday morning, according to the Federal Aviation Administration.

    The Rockwell Commander landed at around 9:20 a.m. after reporting engine issues, the FAA said.

    The two people onboard were not injured, according to Pennsylvania State Police.

    Dashcam video of the incident circulating on social media shows the plane flying low overhead before landing on the interstate and slowing down.

    Emily Rivera, who posted the video, was traveling from Harrisburg to Lehigh Valley when she saw the plane make the landing.

    “Honestly I was in disbelief because I never expected a plane to land in front of me!” Rivera said, adding that she was impressed with how the pilot landed.

    Police said to expect delays in the area and that all traffic eastbound is being detoured onto exit 40. More information will be released later, police said.

    The FAA is investigating the incident.
