Man Makes Forced Landing With Plane Near Rock Springs On Friday

An Oklahoma man successfully carried out a forced landing in his private plane east of Rock Springs Friday morning. Detective Dick Blust with the Sweetwater County Sheriff's office says 66 year old Phillip Prigmore of Alva, Oklahoma had just bought the 1968 single-engine Cessna Cardinal on Thursday in Salem, Oregon.






Blust says that Prigmore was flying the plane home alone when the crash occurred.





 
Blust says that Federal Aviation Administration officials were notified, and a team of investigators arrive this past weekend. No word yet on the cause of the crash.
