NEW YORK – An alleged bomb threat at JFK Airport spurred a large police response Monday evening.

CBS New York reported alarms went off inside the airport, signifying a security alert around 8:15 p.m., EDT. Officials said somone had phoned in a bomb threat to a Delta Airlines flight landing at JFK, which had come in from San Francisco.

Delta reported that another airline received the threat regarding Delta 468. The flight number belongs to two flights – one from San Francisco to JFK, which was the landing flight that prompted the emergency response, and another from JFK to Tel Aviv that was in the boarding process late Monday.

All of the passengers were taken off of the aircraft and the plane was removed to a remote section of the airport.

Investigators boarded the plane along with bomb sniffing dogs and equipment to determine if the bomb threat was credible.

Port Authority spokesman Joe Pentangelo says the Boeing 757 was evacuated and taken to a remote part of the runway where it was swept and found to have no explosives. No injuries were reported.

The incident comes just a day after two commercial airliners nearly collided at JFK. The near-miss happened when a Caribbean Airlines flight crossed in front of a fully-loaded JetBlue flight that was going near full-speed for takeoff.
