A jet carrying actor and pilot Morgan Freeman made an emergency landing in Mississippi Saturday after blowing a tire during takeoff. Neither Freeman nor his pilot were injured when the SJ30 SyberJet landed at the Tunica airport and ran off the runway, according to an Associated Press report. The two men were the only ones on board the rare six-passenger SJ30, which had departed Clarksdale in northwestern Mississippi.
