BOISE, Idaho (AP) - Officials say no one was hurt when the pilot of a small aircraft had to make an emergency landing on a southwestern Idaho highway.

Boise television station KTVB (https://bit.ly/1arMNtQ ) reports the plane landed on Highway 78 near the small town of Murphy just after 10 a.m. Friday.

Owyhee County dispatchers told the television station the crash was very minor, and three men were able to lift the aircraft and move it out of the roadway.

It wasn’t immediately clear what led to the unscheduled landing.
