HOUSTON - A jet for the Detroit Pistons landed safely at Houston’s Hobby Airport after an alert was issued regarding the plane's landing gear.

According to the Houston Airport System, there was concern over the jet's left side landing gear hydraulics.

SkyFox was over the airport as the jet landed shortly before 6 p.m. Monday. Members of the Houston Fire Department planned to board the plane and look it over.

Aerial views showed Pistons team logo on the jet, but it is unknown if any members of the team or its staff were on board during the scare.

There were no injuries among the 44 passengers, who were allowed to exit the plane at a normal private terminal.

The team is scheduled to play the Houston Rockets at the Toyota Center on Tuesday night.
