Series of suspicious finds ground SWFIA flight

FORT MYERS — A series of suspicious finds led to the grounding and search of a plane at Southwest Florida International Airport Wednesday afternoon.

Officials say three passengers aboard a jet bound for JFK were questioned by TSA and FBI officials after cash, aircraft diagrams and notes in Arabic were found in luggage connected to them.

Atef Wahba, his wife Alice Wahba and Anthony Donato were all questioned at SWFIA as most of the rest of the passengers boarded the jet and continued on to New York.

A records check yielded a Brooklyn address for the Wahba's. The relationship between the Wahba's and Donato, if any, has not yet been disclosed.

The three have reportedly been released. (snip)
