A Plane Just Landed On A Highway In New York City

A small plane headed for a landing at LaGuardia Airport instead made a landing on the Major Deegan Expressway in the Bronx this afternoon. Though three people were inside, only one had a minor injury. Not bad.

It's unclear what caused the Piper PA28-180 to lose power before landing on the highway, but at least now you can say that at least one part of New York City has worse traffic than China.
