Just plane scary
MORRISVILLE, N.C. — A private jet carrying comedian Russell Peters had to make an emergency landing at RaleighDurham International Airport.
An Instagram post from the Canadian actor says the plane suffered a flat tire while taking off late Wednesday night after he had just performed in North Carolina. He says the pilot made the announcement 30 minutes into a flight to Texas on the way back to Los Angeles.
The pilot burned off some fuel before making a bumpy landing at 1:30 a.m. Peters says no one was hurt.
RDU officials say there were seven people on board.
Peters and his crew were able to take a later commercial flight.
