Nevada State Police said the two-seater plane was having mechanical issues and had to land on U.S. 95 northbound near the Kyle Canyon Road exit. The agency posted photographs on Twitter showing the SUV’s windshield after it shattered from hitting the plane’s wing as the aircraft was sitting on the left shoulder of the highway.
Authorities said the injures were not life-threatening.
One southbound lane remained open as authorities conducted their investigation. Authorities have not released any other details.
