A two-person plane crash-landed Saturday morning on Via Villa in Goodyear, police said.
The plane was experiencing mechanical problems, and it landed on the road, striking a tree, mailbox and parked vehicle that was not occupied, according to officials.
The two people on the plane suffered no injuries, and there were no injuries on the ground, police said.
The car received minimal damage.
Via Villa was closed between Central and Palo Verde.
Authorities said the Cessna 172 P departed from Glendale Airport and began losing oil pressure soon after taking off.
The pilot attempted to make an emergency landing at the Phoenix Goodyear Airport when the engine lost power and aircraft was put down down on the street about 8:30 a.m. Feb. 10.
The plane leaked about 5 gallons of fuel "which was quickly mitigated by the fire department," a release stated.
The FAA will be investigating to determine the cause.
