PROVO, Utah (AP) -- A SkyWest plane carrying 21 passengers from Salt Lake City to St. George made a safe emergency landing over concerns about one of its engines.

SkyWest spokeswoman Marissa Snow says the crew decided to put down at the Provo airport shortly before noon Thursday after an oil-pressure light for one of its two engines came on indicating a possible problem.

She says the plane landed with just one engine without incident.

Snow says the passengers were bused back to Salt Lake, where they took another flight to St. George.
