A light aircraft lost power and made a sudden landing on water. The people on board had to get out of the plane and swim to a safer spot. This happened when the aircraft was approaching its destination.
One of the passengers was U.S. Rep. Tom Tiffany, who was coming back from an event.
The pilot and Tiffany called for emergency help after they swam to safety. They waited in a shallow area until help arrived by boat. Further details about the incident are available, including a statement from the Marathon County Sheriff's Office and comments from Rep.
