MINOT, N.D. (AP) - Minot Air Force Base officials are describing an emergency helicopter landing south of Parshall as a mishap.

Officials say two of five crew members on board received minor injuries when the UH-1N ``Huey'' helicopter went down in a remote area Monday morning.

Three other crew members were not injured.

Col. Bryan Haderlie, commander of the 91st Operations Group, says it was a ``landing that you would characterize as a mishap.''

He gave no further details.

Haderlie says the extent of the damage is not known.

The helicopter remains at the scene.
