The luggage from a United Airlines flight from Los Angeles was searched on the tarmac at Newark Airport on Sunday after a passenger made a bomb threat, according to reports.
Flight 2304 was met by police when it landed at about 4:30 p.m. at the New Jersey airport, the Lakewood Scoop reported.
The suspect was removed from the Boeing 787 and police placed all the passengers’ luggage on the tarmac, where canines sniffed it for possible explosives.
After the all-clear, the bags were released to the passengers, who were bused to the terminal, according to the news outlet.
