07/05/2010 08:01

US authorities stopped an Emirates plane as it was about to leave New York's JFK airport over a security scare, but the incident was a "false alarm," a law enforcement source said on Thursday.

 

The source said a passenger aboard the flight to Dubai had a name similar to a person on the US "no fly" list.

 

The source said the plane, which was halted as it taxied toward a runway, later departed. A flight tracking website showed it had left an hour and a half late.
