A passenger jet en route to Honolulu has landed safely at Denver International Airport after it experienced engine problems that included parts of the plane raining down on neighbourhoods near where it took off.
Officials with Denver International Airport confirmed to CNN that United Airlines Flight 328 took off from the airport on Saturday but then had to return after experiencing engine difficulties. The pilot was safely able to land the plane back at the airport.
A loud boom was heard by residents on the ground near the airport following takeoff.
Police in Broomfield, Colorado, a northern suburb of Denver, first reported calls from residents of large pieces of plane debris landing in the yards of nearby neighbourhoods.
Several images shared by the Broomfield Police Department showed large pieces of the plane littered in front of several homes, including one that appeared to depict a large piece of the engine. Plane debris was also located on a soccer field in the neighbourhood.
“The plane landed safely at DIA. We still haven’t received reports of any injuries,” the police department tweeted.
One resident on the ground shared an image of the airplane flying overhead, and it showed what looked to be the right engine on fire. Then a video shared online by a passenger on the plane depicted a damaged right engine as the jet made its emergency landing.
An official with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) confirmed to CNN that it was the right engine of the plane that experienced difficulties.
No injuries were reported inside the plane upon landing and passengers had to evacuate directly onto the airport tarmac. They were then shuttled back to the terminal from the plane.
