A small plane made a hard landing at Siasconset, in heavy fog on the southeastern part of Nantucket Island near Low Beach Road in Massachusetts between 8:30 and 8:45 p.m. EDT. Both the pilot and his wife were taken to the hospital for observation. Serious injuries were not reported.
The plane was equipped with a parachute, and it appears the parachute had been deployed before the crash, according to Lieutenant Jerry Adams of the Nantucket police department.
Police cordoned off the area and about a dozen emergency vehicles responded to the incident. Numerous residents reported a loud noise which they mistakenly believed to be an explosion.
