A Continental Airlines flight from Newark to Buffalo lost a wheel as it landed at the Buffalo Niagara International Airport on Tuesday night.

A spokesperson for the NFTA confirms the incident. He says flight 3268 landed safely. The pilot called for assistance to tow the plane to the gate. The tire was found in the grass, near the runway.

Colgan Airlines operates the Q400 Bombradier plane. The incident comes exactly three months after flight 3407 crashed in Clarence. The same type of plane was used for both flights.

Colgan Air has not commented on the incident.
