According to the Chisago County Sheriff's Office, the fixed-wing single-engine experimental plane was forced to make an emergency landing when it "overheated." The pilot brought it down on the exit ramp and taxied to the parking lot of a nearby Kwik Trip at about 9:30 a.m.
No one was hurt and the plane appeared undamaged, but the Sheriff's Office noted wryly in a tweet about the incident that a citation "was issued for quadruple parking."
According to online records, the plane is co-owned by Michael L. Robbins of Cambridge, Minn.
