During a Thursday morning training exercise, a U.S. Air Force A-10C Thunderbolt II jet fired a rocket into the desert near Tucson, Ariz. This was not supposed to happen.

No injuries or damages were reported following the incident and the rocket landed in an empty desert wash near Mount Graham, in the Jackal Military Operations Area, about 60 miles northeast of Tuscon, according to an Air Force press release.

“This training area is not designated for munitions release,” the press release noted.
