    SALINAS, California (KSBW) — Salinas Fire told KSBW 8 that a plane went down in front of Salinas Airport on Friday.

Video from the scene shows the plane coming down and hitting a power line on its way to the ground, causing a utility pole to spark.

A fire spokesperson said the plane either made an emergency landing or a hard landing and was able to come down in a vacant lot in front of the airport.

Two people were aboard the plane, but no injuries were reported.

The downed utility pole may also have sparked a small grass fire in the area.
