Hot air balloon makes emergency landing in California backyard
A couple in Temecula, California, woke up to find a hot air balloon boarded with 13 people in their backyard on Saturday.
The pilot said he had to make an emergency landing due to the balloon hovering and running out of fuel. No injuries were reported.
“I was amazed that they missed our tree. They missed our house”, Jenna Perrin said. “They’re practically kissing the fence".
