A DHL cargo plane split in two after it was forced to make an emergency landing in Costa Rica.

The Boeing 757-200 cargo plane suffered a hydraulic system failure on its way to Guatemala on Thursday, the Costa Rican civil air authority said.

The aircraft, operated by Deutsche Post AG, requested an emergency landing shortly after take off before skidding onto the runway.
