Blimp forced to make emergency landing

Oh, the humanity!

Just kidding—there were reportedly no injuries after a blimp, of all things, made an emergency landing Friday night in Fishtown, according to a 6 ABC News report.

The two-passenger vesselreportedly landed around 6:45 p.m. on the 1900 block of Richmond Street. It later deflated.

No power outages were reported as a result of the landing, CBS Philly reported.

Some users shared video and pictures from the scene:
