Rep. Tom Tiffany’s (R-WI) plane made an emergency landing in a lake after losing power, forcing him to swim to safety.

Tiffany was flying back from the La Crosse County Lincoln Day Dinner on a Beechcraft K35 when the aircraft suddenly lost power, forcing the pilot to make an emergency landing in Lake Wausau. Tiffany and the pilot were the only two on board, and both swam to safety mostly unharmed.
