Horizon Air jet makes emergency landing in Calif

The Associated Press

SACRAMENTO, Calif. A Fresno-to-Seattle flight has made an emergency landing at Sacramento International Airport after the jet experienced problems with its left engine.

There have been no reports of injury.

Horizon Air spokeswoman Jen Boyer says Flight 2530 departed Fresno at 7:20 a.m. with 25 passengers on board. Pilots got an indication that something was wrong with the left engine of the 70-seat Bombardier CRJ-700 and requested an emergency landing in Sacramento.

Gina Swankie, a spokeswoman for the airport, says the plane landed without incident around 8:30 a.m.

Boyer says the airline will accommodate passengers on other flights out of Sacramento.
