Southwest jet slides off runway, no injuries reported

Emergency landings happen daily for U.S. scheduled airlines and no media reports them all, but this incident is a little more unusual. A Southwest 737, landing at Chicago Midway after a flight from Denver, skidded off a runway when it hit a muddy patch in a heavy rainstorm. All passengers and crew evacuated safely and there were no injuries reported. Check the 'Net for updates.
