Eyewitnesses circulated pictures and video clips of the plane's flight in the air from the inside and outside, which showed one of the engines caught fire as a result of the malfunction.
Pictures posted by the Broomfield police account via Twitter showed that parts of the plane's engine fell on multiple areas of the city, but without any injuries, and the account appealed to citizens not to approach them.
