Flames and smoke were seen pouring out from the underside of a Frontier Airlines plane that landed at Harry Reid International Airport on Saturday afternoon.

There were no reported injuries and all 190 passengers and seven crew members were safely transported to the terminal, airport spokesperson Amanda Mazzagatti said.

Frontier Flight 1326, which was arriving from San Diego, landed at 3:15 p.m. at the airport, according to Mazzagatti.

Tyler Herrick, 31, was sitting at the D gates when he noticed fire trucks rolling down the runway.

He captured the incident on video and posted it to X.

Pilots detected smoke coming out of the airplane during landing and declared an emergency, Mazzagatti said.

The cause of the incident was under investigation, according to Mazzagatti.
