PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – Authorities have isolated two UPS cargo planes at Philadelphia International Airport following a report of suspicious packages on the planes. Another plane has also been isolated in Newark, New Jersey.

Local and federal authorities are investigating a suspicious package aboard a UPS plane that landed at Philadelphia International Airport at about 9 a.m. from Paris, France. The second plane, from Cologne, Germany, was isolated near the UPS terminal. The plane from Germany landed in Philadelphia at about 8 a.m. and was scheduled to depart at 10:30 a.m. for Louisville, Kentucky. At about the same, a third plane landed safely at Newark International Airport and was isolated.

Authorities say the incident in Philadelphia began when a crew member aboard the plane from Paris notified authorities on approach about a suspicious package. The two crew members safely exited the aircraft after landing in a remote area of the airport.
