Lockdown reported at Heathrow Airport over 'suspicious package' at check-in Bomb scare prompts security operation at London airport
(35 minutes later)
A lockdown has been reported at Terminal 4 of Heathrow Airport in London after a suspicious package was discovered at a check-in counter. An airport official, however, denies the terminal has been closed. A “suspicious package” discovered at a check-in desk at Terminal 4 of Heathrow Airport in London sparked a police operation that saw armed officers sealing off the departure area of the terminal and evacuating passengers. The object was reportedly discovered at the check-in desk for an El Al Israeli Airlines flight at Terminal 4, according to the Daily Express. The alarm turned out to be false and the terminal resumed operating as normal less than half an hour after the incident.
