One person was injured Saturday night when a plane turned over as it was landing at Reid-Hillview Airport in San Jose, a captain with the San Jose Fire Department said.
Fire crews and an ambulance responded at 8:44 p.m. to the airport at 2500 Cunningham Ave. after a report that a plane was down, Capt. Peter Caponio said.
The four-passenger single prop Cessna 172 with four people on board was landing when a wheel went off the paved portion of the runway, Caponio said.
"The plane was inbound," Caponio said. "The landing gear went off road a little bit of the landing strip and caused the plane to tilt and it flipped over on its side."
Firefighters said when they arrived on scene all four people had already managed to crawl out.
One person was taken to the hospital with minor injuries, he said.
