Turkish Airlines Flight Cancelled After 'BOMB TO
TORONTO' Written In Plane's Bathroom
ISTANBUL
— A Turkish Airlines plane in Istanbul was evacuated Saturday after a
suspicious note was discovered in one of its bathrooms.
The
Turkish Airlines cabin crew found the words "BOMB TO TORONTO'' on the
bathroom's wall on Flight TK-17 during its pushback from the gate, a Turkish
Airlines press official told The Associated Press. The plane was leaving
Istanbul's Ataturk International Airport for Toronto Pearson International Airport.
The
plane returned to its parking spot and was evacuated. The airline said the
plane and its passengers underwent security procedures, but the official said
nothing suspicious was found. The press official spoke on condition of
anonymity because he was not allowed by his company to give his name.
A new
plane has been designated for the flight to Toronto
