The FBI says investigators have found no explosives aboard a Los Angeles-bound Thai Airways flight in which a bomb threat was found scrawled on a bathroom mirror.
An FBI spokeswoman says investigators did a thorough search of the plane Tuesday night and found no evidence to suggest a credible threat to the aircraft existed. She says all passengers were immediately removed from the plane, interviewed and released.
She says there were no arrests.
The FBI says Flight 794 landed safely at Los Angeles International Airport just before 9 p.m. Tuesday evening and was taken to a remote area of the airport where passengers exited the plane and the search was conducted.
