A cracked window on a Southwest Airlines plane forced a plane heading from Chicago to New Jersey to land in Cleveland Wednesday, just two weeks after a jet engine blew apart and broke a window in a deadly accident aboard another Southwest flight, the Associated Press reported.

There were no reports of injuries after Flight 957 landed safely.

Dallas-based Southwest said that the plane diverted to Cleveland for a maintenance review after the damage to one of the multiple layers of window pane. Photos from inside the plane taken by passengers and posted on social media showed one window with a large, jagged crack.

Southwest didn't immediately release details on how the window was damaged.
