Los Angeles:
Veteran actor Morgan Freeman had a big scare on December 5, when a plane carrying him crash landed in Tunica, Mississippi, reported
TheWrap.
The actor was not injured, but the plane was badly damaged as it careened off a runway during an emergency landing.
"I was on my plane on the way to Texas to shoot a segment for
The Story of God. Sometimes things don't go as planned and a tire blew on take-off which caused other problems. But thanks to my excellent pilot Jimmy Hobson we landed safely without a scratch. I cannot say the same about my plane," Mr Freenam said in a statement. (Also Read:

The plane was headed to Houston, Texas, from Clarksdale, Mississippi.
