Small Plane Makes Emergency Landing In Field

SUPERIOR, Colo. (CBS4) - Emergency crews in Boulder County responded to the Superior area at midday after a small plane made an emergency landing in a field after it lost power.

The Boulder County Sheriff's office said no one was hurt in the incident west of Superior.

All three people on board escaped injury when the plane lost power.

Copter4 video showed the single engine propeller plane in the middle of a grassy field and police officers interviewing what appeared to be the pilot.

The pilot told authorities rather than try to make it to Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport, he decided to land in the field.
