An M Lhuillier Helicopter with two men aboard made an emergency landing after its rotor blades became entangled in the string of a kite being flown by children.

No one was injured Thursday morning and the helicopter landed for safety reasons in a vacant lot in Sitio Sta. Lucia in Barangay Trinidad in Guindulman town.

In a video post posted by Andrew Lacar, residents rushed to the area to see the helicopter.

The rotor blades reeled in about 5 meters yards of nylon kite string.

The helicopter was put back into service after 10 minutes.
