Small plane makes emergency landing in Colorado on street in Castle Rock

A small plane made a successful emergency landing on a Colorado road in Castle Rock on Monday. No injuries were reported, but the plane did strike a moving vehicle during the landing attempt. 

It happened just before 6:15 p.m. on Prairie Hawk Drive near the intersection with Wolfensberger Road. That's on the west side of Interstate 25.

So far, it's not clear why an emergency landing was needed. The Castle Rock Police Department said in a social media post that the FAA and the NTSB have been alerted to the incident.

Prairie Hawk Drive was closed for safety reasons for about two hours after that landing.
