Steelers' plane makes emergency landing in Kansas City

The Pittsburgh Steelers' charter plane from Las Vegas made an emergency landing in Kansas City, Missouri, early Monday morning.

A Steelers spokesperson posted on social media that everyone on the plane is safe and that the team is "making necessary plans to arrive back in Pittsburgh later today."

Multiple Pittsburgh media outlets reported that the plane landed at KCI Airport at 3:55 a.m. local time because of oil pressure failure in one of the engines. Fire trucks were at the scene inspecting the Airbus A330-900, according to Pittsburgh CBS affiliate KDKA, which had a news crew on board the plane.
