ROOSEVELT, N.Y. (AP) - An airplane part fell from the sky and landed on the front lawn of a home on Long Island, New York. Authorities are looking into how it happened. Residents called police Thursday evening to report a suspicious object on the home's lawn in Roosevelt. Officers found a 3-foot-by-4-foot cone-shaped piece of metal. Investigators determined it had fallen from a commercial airplane. Police didn't immediately say which airline owned the part. No one was injured. (Copyright 2009 by The Associated Press.
