A pilot has suffered just minor injuries, after parachuting from a
malfunctioning glider and landing on the roof of a Downtown Reno parking garage
Sunday afternoon.


Reno Fire says a man took off from Mammoth, California in his glider earlier on
Sunday.


Officials say as he was flying through windy conditions over Reno, when one of
his wings snapped off.


The debris landed in Dick Taylor Park.


The pilot then evacuated the glider by parachute, landing on the 5-story parking
structure of St. Mary's hospital, near Circus Circus.
