EMS and the Missouri Highway Patrol were sent to the scene.
Don't know the number or extent of injuries yet...
A single-engine airplane's landing gear collapsed just after the aircraft landed at Kansas City MO's Downtown Airport around the same time.
A full complement of KC-MO Fire companies along with FD-EMS were sent to the scene- but there was no fire nor reported injuries.
Now there's a crash and a traffic slowdown on westbound I-70 near Sterling- and Wbnd traffic is backed up for about a mile.
Eastbound I-70 east of Blue Ridge Boulevard all the way to M-291/I-470 is a virtual parking lot.
The freeway is restricted to one lane at the earlier officer-involved shooting scene.
I-70 fully-reopened around 3:50 p.m...

It appears to be a wild afternoon shaping up.
Looks like the pilot did a very good job of landing the plane appears to be a very clean set down.
Just another day in the neighborhood...
Other than the prop, it looks like a mighty fine landing there.

Word Verification tonight: urant as in "You rant, you rave..."
What is that old saying guys... ANY landing that you walk away from is a good one?
Keeping your wits during a disaster is another good one too...
