PASCO, Wash. — Ten people are okay after a plane landed at the Tri-Cities Airport without a landing gear Tuesday morning, according to Ben Shearer with the Pasco Fire Department.

Sheared told KAPP-KVEW that a private plane carrying 10 people had to make a landing without landing gear, skidding on the runway and causing the plane to catch fire.

The fire has been put out, but the airport is temporarily closed while investigators work to determine why the landing gear did not engage.
