LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) — No one was injured after a airplane ran off the runway Thursday, hitting a house in western Kentucky.

According to the Graves County Sheriff's Facebook page, about 3:49 p.m., police received a report of a plane crash at the Mayfield Graves County Airport.

When police arrived, they found a jet airplane had crashed into a home in the 2100 block of KY 58.

Sheriff Jon Hayden said in the post the plane landed but the pilot was unable to get the plane to stop at the end of the runway. The plane continued into a grassy area, through a fence, crossing KY 58 and hitting the home.
