Balloons make landing on highway

BATTLE CREEK, Mich. (Newschannel 3) - Some hot air balloons made an unexpected landing on Friday night on a local highway.

It happened around 7:30 p.m. on Business I-94. 

Eight hot air balloons from the Battle Creek Balloon Festival were forced to land on the highway, due to lack of wind and airspace restrictions at the Fort Custer Air Base near by.

No one was injured in the landings.
