KEY WEST, Fla. (AP) — A small, twin-engine plane skidded off a runway while landing at Key West International Airport.

Monroe County spokeswoman Cammy Clark said in an email that the plane experienced landing gear failure during the Tuesday morning landing. Two people aboard the Beechcraft plane were not injured.

The runway was closed while authorities moved the airplane. It has since reopened.

Clark says a Delta Airlines flight was delayed due to the incident.
