KANSAS CITY, Mo. - A UPS cargo plane en route from Philadelphia to Ontario, Calif. made an emergency landing at Kansas City International Airport Wednesday.

Kansas City Firefighters were dispatched out to KCI at about 4:54 p.m. on reports of an inbound cargo airplane with one of its three engines not working.

The plane, UPS Flight 2930, landed without incident just after 5 p.m. on runway 19R at KCI, according to an airport spokesman.

There were no injuries to the two people on board the aircraft at the time of the incident, which a UPS spokesman described as a “remote occurrence.”
