A United Airlines jet made a rough landing Wednesday at Denver International Airport, causing minor injuries to two flight attendants.

"It landed kind of hard, and it shook loose the oxygen masks," Joe Hopkins, United Airlines spokesman, said. "Nobody went to the hospital."

Pilots were able to taxi the aircraft to its gate.

Hopkins said 215 passengers were on board the Boeing 777.

United flight 252 was destined for Chicago, via Denver. It originated in Los Angeles. Passengers who continued on flight 252 boarded another aircraft.
