SEATTLE, Wash. -- A small plane made a surprise landing at a Seattle park Monday afternoon.

The Cessna 210 landed in Seattle's Genesee Park just before 4.30 p.m., to the surprise of Memorial Day park attendees.

There were no injuries, according to Seattle Police Department's Mark Jamieson.
Jamieson tells KIRO-TV that officers nearby heard the plane having mechanical difficulties.

The Federal Aviation Administration tells KIRO that the plane filed a flight plan to Seattle from Omak, in eastern Washington.

There were three people and one dog on board the plane, says the FAA spokesperson.
