Two passenger planes escorted by F-16 fighter jets landed at Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport on Saturday after bomb threats made on Twitter, military officials told CNN
The FBI confirmed to local media in Atlanta that the planes have been given the “all clear,” after being checked for bombs.
FBI spokesman Stephen Emmett told the Associated Press that no suspicious cargo was found.
The FBI additionally plans to “sweep online feeds and WiFi from the planes to track down who made the threats,” and said that all passengers on both flights will be interviewed and searched before given clearance to leave the airport
