Radio report said that the pilot was having trouble and radioed for an emergency landing near the closest airport which happened to be RDU. He came up short and ejected. The airport has been closed.

Outgoing flights on hold - crash near terminal A.

I-40 and US 70 traffic diverted...

I'm at work at RTP and get to go around the mess to go home...

At least it looks like the pilot ejected and no word of injuries on the ground.
