A small plane made an emergency landing on the busy Major Deegan Expressway in the Bronx Saturday afternoon, injuring at least three people, the New York City Fire Department said.
The plane landed near East 233rd Street shortly before 3:22 p.m. ET, and the fire department dispatched numerous units to the scene.
It was not immediately clear whether all the injured were on board the aircraft. They were transported to St. Barnabus Hospital, which is about four miles from the scene, according to FDNY.
The four-seat, one-engine 1966 Piper PA had minor damage, the FAA reported to NBC New York. The plane is registered to an owner in South Salem, N.Y, according to aircraft registration records.
The city's Office of Emergency Management said drivers should expect traffic delays.
