An F-16 Fighting Falcon fighter jet skidded off a runway and stopped when its nose cone dipped onto the airfield during a training mission in South Dakota on Wednesday, according to the Air National Guard.
An unverified image of the fighter jet, based out of the 114th Fighter Wing in Sioux Falls, began circulating online. The Air National Guard issued a statement about the incident on Facebook shortly after the picture was posted, explaining that the aircraft "went off the end of Runway 15 at Joe Foss Field."

Glad the Pilot was able to walk away, this shows the emergency training pays off.
