BURLINGTON, Vt. (AP) — A Chicago-bound United Airlines regional jet made an emergency landing in Vermont shortly after takeoff after reports of a failed engine and of smoke in the cargo hold.

Burlington International Airport operations specialist Patrick Sharrow says United Airlines Flight 3785 landed safely at 6:28 a.m. EST Wednesday after being in the air for about 10 minutes. No one was reported injured. The CRJ700 plane was carrying 66 passengers and four crew members.

United spokesman Rahsaan Johnson says a cockpit indicator light erroneously alerted the flight crew to smoke in the cargo hold. He also says there was no engine failure.

Johnson says customers are en route to Chicago and their final destinations.
