"A United Airlines flight has made an emergency landing after suffering major damage to one of its engines and dropping huge pieces of debris over a neighborhood in Colorado.

Flight UA328 suffered serious engine failure shortly after takeoff from Denver, the FAA said.

The Boeing 777-200, which was scheduled to fly to Honolulu in Hawaii, diverted back to Denver and landed safely."

"No injuries on the ground or in the plane were reported.

Police are working to locate all the debris, and urged people not to move any wreckage they found, pending the arrival of officials from the National Transportation Safety Board."
