About 10 a.m., investigators said several cars had to move off State Road 60 in Sellersburg to avoid being hit by the plane.

Police said the plane ran out of gas.

One driver could not clear the roadway fast enough and the plane scraped across the roof of his truck.

“I tried to veer over to the right as much as I could. The pilot landed and kind of bounced around a little bit. The next thing I know, the wing clips and goes right over the top of my car. It was the wildest thing I’ve ever seen,” driver David Via said.

State police escorted the plane down the highway and into a regional airport.

No injuries were reported.
