BROOMFIELD, Colo. - A small twin-engine airplane with two people on board crash-landed Friday afternoon at a golf course near the Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport in Jefferson County.

The plane landed on the Omni Interlocken Golf Course in Broomfield, just north of the airport, at about 3:45 p.m., after the plane experienced mechanical problems and lost power in both engines of the Aero Commander.

No one was injured when plane slid across the snow-covered golf course with its landing gear retracted.
