US Airways Jet Diverted on Passenger’s ‘Suspicious Behavior’

A US Airways Group Inc. flight en route from Paris to Charlotte, North Carolina, was diverted after a passenger said she had a surgically implanted device inside her, a U.S. congressman said. Nothing was found, federal officials said.

The Boeing Co. 767 jet landed safely in Bangor, Maine, shortly after noon local time, said Todd Lehmacher, a spokesman for the carrier. The jet had 188 passengers and crew, he said today, and referred further questions to the U.S. Transportation Security Administration.
