Incident Reported on Another Amsterdam-to-Detroit Flight

The pilots of Northwest Airlines Flight 253 from Amsterdam to
Detroit -- the same flight involved in Friday's terrorism
attempt -- requested emergency assistance Sunday upon landing
in Detroit, Scott Wintner, an airport spokesman said.

Police vehicles met the plane at the far end of the airport,
and five buses drove up to the plane, in a repeat of the same
scene that occurred on Friday. Mr. Wintner said he did not
yet know what the emergency was, and said it could be
anything from an ill passenger to a mechanical problem. "It's
a pretty typical response," he said of the police vehicles.
"With an aircraft situation, speed is of the essence." Mr.
Wintner said airport officials were on their way to the
scene.
