A flight home from a Republican dinner in La Crosse ended with Tom Tiffany and his pilot
in Lake Wausau after their plane lost power near the Wausau downtown airport.
Authorities say the 911 call came in around 849 Saturday night, and Tiffany says the two got out of the plane as it started to sink.
It's not like they made plans to move to the nearest shore after it went under, and I lost contact with them.
I believe his phone is underwater.
They may be swimming south, I believe.
We have two victims of the water.
We're just pulling about out.
Most of them back to the landing with two victims.
Both are alert cautious.
Tiffany took to a microphone later in the day to explain what happened and talked about the injuries to himself and his hero pilot.
Democratic candidate David Crowley issued a statement saying he is thankful no one was seriously hurt.
Federal investigators are looking into the emergency landing.
It wasn't the season opener Packer fans had hoped for against division rivals Minnesota Vikings.
The pack had a double digit lead going into halftime with an impressive performance controlling the game from the start.
The second half was a different story, though.
A scenario all too familiar to Packer fans.
The Vikings scored 29 points in a row.
Jordan Love faced back-to-back sacks, fumbling on one of them, and a string of penalties led to a 39-22 blowout by the Vikings.
The Packers head to New York next week to take on the Jets.

The officer who fired the gun is now on administrative leave for the department's policy.
Due to the active investigation in downtown Green Bay, city leaders canceled Saturday's farmers market.

The Packers lose to the Vikings.
Hi, I'm Mike Clemens from US Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, where the Packers lost 39 to 22.
Green Bay had the lead, then gave up four consecutive touchdowns to the Vikings.
I asked the Packers new linebacker, Zaire Franklin, if he'd ever seen a game flip like that in the fourth quarter.
Man, I've been through a lot of s*** in this league.
I don't know.
Maybe.
It's just tough.
We just gotta look back at it and see, you know, what our role was in it, how we could be better on our technique and our fundamentals and not put ourselves in a situation, you know, in these type of games you can't.
the game in the hands of the rest, right, wrong, or indifferent.
We just got to execute and do our job.
