MIAMI

An American Airlines plane blew a tire while landing at Miami International Airport early Wednesday morning.

The plane was headed from Buenos Aires, Argentina to Miami when the pilot noticed a low tire indicator light on.

Firefighters at the airport prepared for an emergency landing and surrounded the runway.

When the plane touched down, a rear tire on the 777 jet blew out. Smoke was seen coming from the tire after the plane landed.

The jet was carrying 199 passengers. No one was injured.
