Pilot runs off after plane crashes into car

A small plane crashed into a moving car on Wednesday in Boulder right before it made a crash landing in a field.

No one was hurt in the surprising incident, but the pilot got out of his plane afterwards and ran away towards the Boulder Municipal Airport.



The aircraft was apparently trying to land at the airport but had trouble navigating in heavy winds and came down right onto the car. The driver and passenger, a married couple who live in Boulder, said they were shocked to see the plane heading their way.

The collision broke the side back window of the Toyota Prius and dented the rear back panel. It didn't appear the plane had much damage.



The couple said that after landing the plane in the field the pilot hopped out of the plane, grabbed a large bag and took off.

Police said they think they know who the pilot is and they were working to locate him.
