A plane en route to Pakistan has landed in Stockholm because of a bomb threat, Swedish authorities say.
A spokesman at Arlanda airport said the Boeing 777 plane was carrying 273 people from Toronto in Canada and was bound for Karachi.
A Stockholm police spokeswoman said Canadian police had received a tip-off that a passenger was carrying explosives.
“We are going to apprehend this person,” she said, according to AP.
The pilot was said to have requested permission to land at Arlanda and the plane was now at the end of the landing strip.
The airport said it was still open to air traffic.
