MIAMI INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT, FLA. (WSVN) - A plane had to make an emergency landing at Miami International Airport.
Miami-Dade Fire Rescue responded to the runway just before 11 a.m., Tuesday.

One tire was blown out after it landed on Runway 9.
American Airlines officials said the plane was believed to have left Jamaica with a bad tire.
