A small plane made an emergency landing in a field on Staten Island not far from where kids were practicing soccer — but no one was injured, law enforcement sources say.
The Piper PA-18 landed in Miller Field in New Dorp around 5:40 p.m. Wednesday, the Federal Aviation Administration said.
The plane was forced to land due to poor weather conditions, according to the FAA.
The pilot was the only person on board, and wasn't injured.
An investigation is ongoing.
