Police and firefighters were called to Albany International Airport Wednesday morning after a suspicious substance was found on a plane.

The unknown substance was in a package in the cargo hold of a United Express flight.

The passengers and crew on board were evacuated as a precaution. It is not yet known how many passengers there were. No other parts of the airport have been affected.

The plane’s destination is also unknown.

The nature of the substance is still under investigation.
