Northwest Evacuates Plane Due to "Suspicious" Baggage
Jan 12, 2007 12:27 PM PST
A plane scheduled to be leaving McCarran Airport for Minneapolis was delayed from leaving Friday morning after concern for a passenger's baggage caused an evacuation. The plane was searched shortly after 9 a.m., with Metro and County Fire assisting. The FBI is now involved as well.

Northwest Airlines released the following statement:
"Northwest Airlines flight 778, a Boeing 757 aircraft from Las Vegas to Minneapolis/St. Paul with 179 passengers, experienced a delay today after concern was raised regarding a passenger's carry-on baggage while the aircraft was parked at the gate. Northwest is cooperating with the appropriate government agencies. As a precautionary measure, passengers have been asked to deplane while the situation is reviewed. Northwest apologizes to its customers for the inconvenience."
