Hopefully not a duplicate thread.

British Airways passengers were flanked by armed officers and searched by sniffer dogs after a "direct security threat" sparked the sudden evacuation of a London-bound plane.

Travellers were escorted from flight BA0303 at Charles De Gaulle Airport, in Paris, this morning.

Dozens of security vehicles, armed police and firefighters surrounded the Airbus A320 as passengers were ordered to move "single file" onto the runway.

The pilot announced there had been a "direct security threat" involving the plane, which is still grounded and now almost four hours behind schedule.
