UK-Bound Flight Grounded Over Bomb Scare

A Ryanair flight from Norway to Manchester was evacuated before take-off due to "suspicious behaviour" of two passengers, police have said.
Norwegian police spokesman Anders Stroemsaether said that the incident at Rygge airport, near Oslo, happened during boarding when the two passengers were overheard arguing in an airport toilet.
He said other passengers heard the word "bomb" being used and told the captain as they boarded the aircraft.
The captain informed police who evacuated the plane and took the two passengers in for questioning.
A bomb squad searched the aircraft but found nothing suspicious.
Police said that the two passengers were discharged after being interviewed.
"After questioning of witnesses and those brought in, the police have concluded that the situation is a result of a misunderstanding," police said.
