A US Airways Plane From Ireland Is Landing In Philadelphia After A Threat

Passengers on a flight from Ireland to Philadelphia will be screened upon landing after a threat was made, according to NBC Philadelphia.

Once it lands, the plane will reportedly be taken to a remote area and inspected by bomb-sniffing dogs.

Police told NBC that the threat, which is unsubstantiated, was called in by an unknown male. NBC says the type of threat is still unspecified, though Irelend's Independent says its a bomb threat.

The plane, a Boeing 767-200ER jet, can hold up to 204 passengers.

Inbound flights at the airport are currently delayed, according to NBC.
