GREEN BAY (AP) -- A United Airlines flight from Houghton, Michigan made an emergency landing in Green Bay, Wisconsin Thursday morning after its landing gear wouldn't retract properly.  The flight was heading to Chicago, and passengers were loaded on another plane to finish their trip.

The flight made an emergency landing at Austin Straubel International Airport in Green Bay.  Airport officials say Flight 6250 took off from Houghton, bound for Chicago, but its landing gear wouldn't retract correctly.

So, it was forced to land in Green Bay.  Nobody was hurt.
