A Boeing 767 out of Boston made an emergency landing Tuesday at
Cleveland Hopkins International Airport due to concerns that it may
have a bomb aboard, said Mayor Michael R. White.
White said the plane had been moved to a secure area of the
airport, and was evacuated.
United identified the plane as Flight 93. The airline did say how
many people were aboard the flight.
United said it was also "deeply concerned" about another flight,
Flight 175, a Boeing 767, which was bound from Boston to Los
Angeles.
On behalf of the airline CEO James Goodwin said: "The thoughts of
everyone at United are with the passengers and crew of these
flights. Our prayers are also with everyone on the ground who may
have been involved.
"United is working with all the relevant authorities, including
the FBI, to obtain further information on these flights," he said.
