Five people were rescued and are recovering after a small private plane skidded off a runway at an Oregon airport and into the nearby bay.

The Southwest Oregon Regional Airport (OTH) shared that a small private aircraft skidded off Runway 23, which is partially surrounded by the Pacific Ocean, while landing early Monday morning.

Officials said the 2019 HA-420 was attempting to land shortly after 6:00 a.m., when it skidded off the runway and into the bay.

The aircraft was located approximately 100 feet off the east end of the runway in the water, according to officials.
