LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — Authorities say they have found no threat after inspecting an aircraft that was the subject of a phone threat at Los Angeles International Airport on Tuesday.

The incident unfolded at LAX after EVA Air Flight 12 from Taipei landed about 3:30 p.m.

Airport officials say the Federal Aviation Administration had received a call about 20 minutes before the plane landed indicating that the flight was the target of a security threat.

Upon landing, authorities took the jet to a secure and remote location, where agents from the FBI, Los Angeles Police Department bomb squad and other agencies investigated.

The FBI said officials with the LAPD, as well as airport police and police dogs trained to detect explosives inspected the jet, as well as passenger luggage.

“No threat to the aircraft was identified,” the FBI said in a written statement. “An investigation to determine individual or group responsible for the threat is ongoing.”

Passengers began to disembark just before 5:30 p.m. and were escorted to the Tom Bradley International Terminal, officials said.

Passengers say they waited about two hours during the investigation and were told it was a “security check.”

“We just waiting on the plane for almost 1 ½ hours, and nobody told us what’s happening,” said Kirk Wei, a passenger.

“We deplaned one at a time,” said Travis Payne, another passenger. “They checked our passports, and we had to leave our luggage and separate from it. Bomb dog sniffed it and then we were cleared. We got on buses and were shuttled over.”

The FBI said earlier reports that passengers were detained in connection with the threats are false.

The investigation is continuing.
